INDICATOR COMPONENTS
The AVERAGE SCORE combines the quantitative analysis of six widely-used investment decision making tools: Earnings,
Fundamental, Relative Valuation, Risk, Price Momentum and Insider Trading. A simple average of the underlying component ratings is
normally distributed to rank stocks on a 1-10 scale (10 being awarded to the most favorable). These factors may be evaluated
differently using alternative methodologies and the importance of individual factors varies across industries, market capitalization and
investment styles. Additional criteria should always be used to evaluate a stock.

ANNUAL REVENUE
A pattern of increasing sales in
conjunction with a rising EPS may
influence a buy recommendation, while
flat or falling sales and faltering
earnings may explain a sell
recommendation. A rising EPS with flat
or falling sales may result from
increased cost efficiency and margins,
rather than market expansion. This
chart shows the sales forecast trend of
all analysts and the highest and lowest
projections for the current and next
fiscal year.

Indicator Components
The six indicators that comprise the stock rating are displayed. Like the stock rating,
the component rating scale is 1 to 10, with 10 being best. A company will receive
an NR for No Rating if the required data elements or criteria are not met. A
detailed section for each component is included in the report.
Indicator Trends
Within each component section, historical score trends are displayed, typically using
a 4-week moving average over a timeframe of the past three years. The dotted
orange line indicates the average of the scores over those three years. The most
recent occurrence of the best and worst scores are also displayed on the chart in
grey boxes to put the current score into historical context.
Next to the trend chart for the company, current score averages are included, along
with peer company comparisons of values from 6 months ago, 3 months ago, 1
month ago, the most recent value from 1 week ago, and the current score. The four
closest industry peers are presented based on similar market capitalization.
Peer Analysis
The Thomson Reuters Business Classification (TRBC) system is used for
industry comparisons. It is designed to track and display the primary business of
a corporation by grouping together correlated companies that offer products and
services into similar end markets. The system includes 10 Economic Sectors, 28
Business Sectors, 54 Industry Groups, and 136 Industries.
The Peer Analysis section of the report compares the company to its ten closest
peers. The peers are selected from the industry based on similar market
capitalization. The peer listing may have fewer than ten companies if there are
fewer than ten companies classified within that industry.
Highlights
The Thomson Reuters proprietary automated text-generation system creates
highlights summarizing the most noteworthy data. The bullets will vary by company
and will change from week to week as different criteria are met.
Earnings
The Earnings Rating is based on a combination of three factors: earnings surprises,
estimate revisions, and recommendation changes. Each factor is equally weighted.
Then, equal deciles are used to rank each stock across the market on a scale of 1
to 10, with 10 being most favorable. A stock needs to have at least two of the three
earnings factors in order to receive a score.

Earnings Surprises - The number of positive and negative surprises within the
last 4 quarters.
Estimate Revisions - The number of up and down revisions and the average
dividend yield.
- Dividend Growth Rate: (Dividends per Share Previous Dividends per Share)
/ Previous Dividends per Share
- Dividend Funding: Dividends / Operating Cash Flow
- Dividend Coverage: (Pre-Tax Income + Interest Expense) / (Interest Expense
+ Dividends)
- Dividend Yield: Annual Dividends per Share / Current Market Price per Share
Indicator Trend
The fundamental indicator trend displays quarterly scores over the past three years.
The best and worst scores over that timeframe can be easily determined from the
values shown on the chart for each quarter.
Valuation Averages
Negative values are excluded when calculating the averages. A maximum value of
100 is placed on Trailing P/E and Forward P/E, a maximum value of 5 is placed on
Forward PEG, and a maximum value of 20 is placed on Price to Sales when
calculating the averages. Higher values are rounded down to the maximum for the
averages.
Valuation Multiples
The valuation multiples provide the Trailing P/E, Forward P/E, Forward PEG, and
Price to Sales for the company and the S&P 500 index average. In addition, a
comparison of the current companys values to its 5-year average and an industry
average are presented. A discount occurs when the companys ratio is valued more
favorably (lower) than that to which it is compared.
Risk
The Risk Rating displays stocks on a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being awarded to the
least risky stocks. It is derived by looking at a series of long-term (5-year) and
short-term (90-day) stock performance measures including volatility, magnitude of
returns, beta, and correlation. Each factor is equally weighted. Then, equal deciles
are used to rank each stock across the market. A stock needs to have at least two
of the four risk factors in order to receive a score.
Magnitude of Returns The best / worst daily returns in the past 90 days and the
Long-Term Insider Looks at buying, selling and option exercise decisions over
the past six months relative to other stocks within the same business sector. The
net shares are presented alongside the business sector average as a means of
comparison.
Monthly Buys and Sells
The total market value of open-market buying and selling is displayed by month in
the chart for easy comparison. Transactions by trusts and corporations are
excluded, along with buys greater than $10 million and sales greater than $50
million. Transactions for the exercise of derivatives and option exercises are
excluded from the totals.
Institutional Holders
The top five institutional holders of the company are listed in descending order,
based on their total share holdings. Possible values for the institution type include
Brokerage, Funds, Inv Mgmt, or Strategic.
Executive Holders
The top five executive insiders of the company are listed in descending order, based
on their total direct common share holdings (options are not considered). Indirect
holdings are excluded, as the owner may not actually have investment discretion
over these shares. This table is updated monthly. Insiders who have not filed any
transactions or holdings over the past two years are excluded as this may indicate
that the individual is no longer associated with the company. Additionally, direct
shares held must be greater than 1,000 to be considered.

last 60 months, along with the average and largest intra-day stock swing.
Beta Measures the tendency of a securitys returns to respond to swings in the
market, based on the beta of the company versus the relevant index.
Correlation Determines how closely the returns of the stock and the relevant
index move together, measured over the last 90 days and last 60 months.
Risk Analysis
Price analysis for the company and the S&P 500 is provided over two time periods.
Daily analysis is provided for the last 90 days, whereas monthly statistics are used
for the last 60 months.
Price Momentum
The Price Momentum Rating is based on a combination of two technical
performance factors: relative strength (70% weight) and seasonality (30% weight).
After the weightings are considered to combine individual factors, equal deciles are
used to rank each stock across the market on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being most
favorable. A stock needs to have data for the relative strength factor in order to
receive a score.
Relative Strength The relative strength of the company for the last 1 month, 3
month and next 2 months for the company and industry, over the past 10 years.
A lower industry rank indicates a higher return.
Price Performance
Daily close prices are used to calculate the price performance of the stock. The
performance of the S&P 500 is also displayed as a means of comparison.
Insider Trading
The Insider Trading Rating is based on short-term (60% weight) and long-term (40%
weight) legal insider trading behavior. After the weightings are considered to
combine individual factors, a function similar to a normal distribution is used to rank
each stock across the market on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being most favorable. A
stock needs to have at least one of the two insider trading factors in order to receive
a score.
Short-Term Insider Uses insider buy and sell transactions within the past 90
days. This factor is based on the Thomson Reuters quantitative insider trading
model that considers the insider's role, consensus, number of shares, market
capitalization of the company, and the historic stock performance following trades
by the given insider.
