Harsco’s business model works by making other great manufacturers successful. By providing everything from scaffolding to onsite recycling to better railroad tracks, clients are able to execute at a much higher level.
And while the American economy lags the rest of the world, Harsco’s three divisions – mill, access, and minerals and rail services – earn 70% of sales from outside the U.S.
Again, the stock’s too cheap, Cramer said, trading at 15 times earnings with a 15% long-term growth rate. So consider buying Harsco. It could be the best technology company you've never heard of.
