CASH FLOW PER SHARE Let’s you see what you are paying for a share of the company’s cash flow Computation: Company’s cash flow (stream of cash through the business) / number of shares outstanding
CURRENT RATIO Most popular gauge of a company’s ability to pay its short-term bills. Let’s you see if the company can handle unexpected expenses or opportunities. Look for companies with a current ratio of at least 2-to-1 Computation: Company’s Assets / Company’s Liabilities
DIVIDEND YIELD Shows you the company’s annual dividend in relationship to its stock price. Look at Dividend Yield over time and you want to see it going up. Computation: Annual Cash Dividend / Current Price of Stock
EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS) Shows the company’s earnings in relation to the number of shares of stock outstanding. The bigger the number, the better. Computation: Company’s Earnings (reported on Annual Statement) / Number of shares outstanding
NET PROFIT MARGIN A high profit margin tells you a company is good at managing and controlling costs. Computation: Revenue/Expenses
PRICE PER SHARE (P/E) RATIO Allows you to compare many stocks by determining how much you are paying for a company’s earning power. The higher the P/E, the more risky – but potentially more rewarding Computation: Earnings per share / stock price
RETURN ON EQUITY (ROE) Shows how much money the company is making off the investments that shareholders have made. A good ROE is anything above 20% Computation: Net Income/Total Shareholder’s Equity
VOLUME The amount of stock that’s traded on any given day, well or another other time period. Measures market “interest” on stock. Rising volume on a rising stock price shows something good is going on at the company
What are BONDS? • A bond is a debt security, similar to an I.O.U. • Also called bills, notes, debt securities, or debt obligations.
BONDS WHY DO COMPANIES ISSUE BONDS? • TO RAISE MONEY • When you purchase a bond, you are lending money to a government, municipality, corporation, federal agency or other entity known as an ISSUER. WHY DO PEOPLE BUY/SELL BONDS? • Issuer promises to pay a specified rate of interest during the life of the bond and to repay the face value of the bond (the principal) when it matures, or comes due.
How BONDS Work: • You pay $1,000 for a 15 year AT&T Bond at 7.5% interest/year. • Each year, you get $75 (1000*.075) • After 15 years, you get your $1000 back TOTAL EARNED = $75*15 years = $1125
READING A BOND • Bond Name • Coupon rate • Maturity Date • Current Bid (expressed as a percentage of par value) • Yield – annual return until the bond matures
