Spartan Growth

John Sztykiel, Spartan Motors' (SPAR - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) president and CEO, joined Cramer on his show and said he sees a "tremendous amount of profitable growth ahead for the company."

"We appreciate where we've been and where we've gone," Sztykiel said. As people look at the company's business model, they'll see Spartan is a company focused on "three great growth opportunities": mind-resistant ambush-protected vehicles, the RV business and emergency vehicles.

Cramer called Spartan "a great story." He said the stock has paused here for a moment but that it is in "bull-market mode."
