Add a New Bulls Reason Company: Talbots (TLB) Current price: Headline: (100 character max) Analysis: Cancel 71% agree 7 votes   Strong cash flow being used to pay down debt Created when NYSE:TLB was $13.79 | Edit | History Talbots generated strong free cash flow of about $140 million in the 2008 fiscal year (ended in February). It used most of that to pay down roughly $125 million in debt, leaving the company with just $389 million in total debt. I don't think some of its cash flows (such as inventory reductions) are sustainable, but I believe that $50 million-$60 million in normalized free cash flow is a reasonable assumption. Relative to Talbots' $665 million market cap, that's quite a healthy yield.[1] (100 character max) Cancel 50% agree 4 votes   New Marketing officer Created when NYSE:TLB was $13.79 | Edit | History New Marketing officer (100 character max) Cancel 50% agree 4 votes   High confidence from lenders in a tough credit market Top Contributor: William Trent | Created when NYSE:TLB was $10.22 | Edit | History High confidence from lenders in a tough credit market (100 character max) Cancel
