The Motley Fool July 25, 2006 Nathan Parmelee	Wrigley's Chewed-Up Performance Wrigley's quarter isn't impressive, but this is a business that will endure. The valuation isn't terribly attractive here, because there isn't much of a margin of safety if growth ends up being slightly slower than it has been historically.
The Motley Fool July 31, 2007 Lawrence Rothman	Getting a Little Stale at Wrigley? Marketing costs for a new sugarless gum may slow things down again.

The Motley Fool October 26, 2006 Seth Jayson	Dueling Fools: Wrigley Bear This is a fine company selling for a not-so-fine price. You wouldn't slap down 20% too much for other items, and you shouldn't overpay for stocks, either.
The Motley Fool August 3, 2005 Richard Gibbons	Wrigley: A Stock I'd Love to Own Even taking relatively optimistic assumptions, such as a 9% discount rate, 10% growth for the next 10 years, and 4% growth thereafter, an intrinsic value calculator shows that the stock is worth about $70, roughly its current price.
The Motley Fool July 26, 2005 Nathan Parmelee	Wrigley Gets Sweeter Wrigley reports a strong quarter but is short on the data to support it.
