Stock Pitch - Spectra Systems (LON:SPSY)

This is a patent-backed authentication materials company that spends millions every year on ground breaking research and development, founded and run by an ex-NASA laser scientist who also owns 5% of the company. Alongside that colourful context and growth potential, you have reassuringly solid operating characteristics: double-digit six-year profit and earnings per share CAGRs, multi-year double-digit returns on capital and operating margins, healthy dividend payouts and share buybacks, and strong free cash flows.
