I look for businesses that produce cash, avoid debt, and sell at a sensible price. Ennis fits part of that picture. In fiscal Q2 2026, the quarter ended 2026-08-31, revenue was $102.0M, net income $9.4M, and diluted EPS $0.37. That is weaker than fiscal Q2 2025, the quarter ended 2025-08-31, when revenue was $98.7M, net income $13.2M, and diluted EPS $0.51—sales edged up, but profits fell. Over the longer filed record, in fiscal year 2025, the year ended 2026-02-28, revenue was $392.4M and net income $42.6M; in fiscal year 2024, the year ended 2025-02-28, revenue was $394.6M and net income $40.2M; in fiscal year 2023, the year ended 2024-02-29, revenue was $420.1M and net income $42.6M. So the top line has not grown and profits are roughly flat. FairStock’s Lynch label calls it a stalwart, with 12.1% annual profit growth over five years but only 1.9% revenue growth. The balance sheet is a genuine strength: D/E 0.03, Altman Z 7.92, Piotroski 7/9. It converts profit to cash, with $55.3M in trailing free cash flow and a 9.8% FCF yield. At the 2026-10-13 close of $22.27, FairStock shows P/E 13.34, P/B 1.81, dividend yield 4.69%, and Graham Number $21.50—so price is about 3.58% above the Graham value. That is not a bargain by Graham’s math. The low beta of 0.28 and 4.69% dividend are appealing, but slow growth makes the 16.27 PEG ratio unattractive. This is a solid, boring cash generator; the question is whether profits can stabilize.

In plain English: Ennis makes printed business products like forms, labels, and envelopes. The company looks financially steady: it makes money, produces cash, and owes very little debt, but sales and profits have been almost flat lately. At the recent price near $22, the stock looks about fairly valued rather than clearly cheap, and it pays a high dividend.
