Question about company analisys--need expert help


james21th said: "Dear all, I found a company with very good figure below: company name: Universal Insurance Holdings Inc P/E: 2.65 Dividend yield: 11.43 EPS 5 year growth rate: 211.53 Capital spending 5 year growth rate: 38.99 ROE: 93.59 ROE 5 year avg: 100.31 Isn't it a very good company with high growth speed? The question is how come the P/E can remain such a low level as 2.65? nobody want to buy this company share? what is the reason behind? Thank you very much if someone can answer this question. Regards James"

james21th said: "But P/E 2.65 means almost two year and a half later you can get the whole investment amount back, plus 100% ROE , such a high speed growth rate, unless people don't want to own money, what fear people have to buy this stock?"
