Foolish verdict

Starbucks expects to expand internationally, especially in the China-Asia Pacific region, a region that has seen sales growth of more than 65% in the last five years. This should mean further profits for the coffee giant, which has a P/E of 29.55. Further, the company is known for its excellent customer loyalty and innovations, which are sure to drive future sales. Throw in a dividend yield of 1.60% and you have a winner!

As for Inventure, with a P/E of 19.02, the stock looks promising. As compared to this time last year, the stock is up by nearly 76.3%. The deal with Starbucks will only add to its upside potential. Green Mountain investors need not worry either. Despite a tough 2012, the company has managed to bounce back and looks like it’s here to stay.
