VECTORVEST SUMMARY
F is fully valued, has below average safety, and is currently rated a Hold.
RECOMMENDATION (REC)
HOLD
REC reflects the cumulative effect of all the VectorVest parameters working together. These parameters are designed to help investors buy safe, undervalued stocks rising in price.
VALUE
Current Price: $10.48
Current Value: $9.79
F has a current Value of $9.79 per share; compared to a Price of $10.48 per share, this stock is currently fully valued. Value is computed from forecasted earnings per share, forecasted earnings growth, profitability, interest, and inflation rates.
UPSIDE POTENTIAL (Relative Value/RV)
FAIR
RV is an indicator of long-term price appreciation potential. F has an RV of 0.97, which is fair on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00. This indicator is far superior to a simple comparison of Price and Value because it is computed from an analysis of projected price appreciation three years out, AAA Corporate Bond Rates, and risk.
SAFETY (Relative Safety/RS)
POOR
RS is an indicator of risk. F has an RS of 0.72, which is poor on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00. RS is computed from an analysis of the consistency and predictability of a company's financial performance, debt to equity ratio, sales volume, business longevity, price volatility and other factors.
TIMING (Relative Timing/RT)
POOR
RT analyzes a stock's price trend. F has a Relative Timing of 0.63, which is poor on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00. RT is computed from an analysis of the direction, magnitude, and dynamics of a stock's price movements day-over-day, week-over-week, quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year. If a trend dissipates, RT will gravitate toward 1.00.
OVERALL RATING (Value-Safety-Timing/VST)
POOR
VST is the master indicator for ranking every stock in the VectorVest database. F has a VST rating of 0.77, which is poor on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00. VST is computed from the square root of a weighted sum of the squares of RV, RS, and RT. Stocks with the highest VST ratings have the best combinations of Value, Safety and Timing.
STOP (Stop-Price)
Stop Price: $10.47
Stop is an indicator of when to sell a position. F has a Stop of $10.47 per share. A stock's Stop is computed from a 13 week moving average of its closing prices, and is fine-tuned according to the stock's fundamentals.
CI (Comfort Index)
VERY POOR
CI is an indicator which reflects a stock's ability to resist severe and/or lengthy price declines. F has a CI rating of 0.27, which is very poor on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00. CI is based solely upon a stock's long-term price history.

EPS (Earnings per Share): EPS stands for leading 12 months Earnings Per Share. F has a forecasted EPS of $1.76 per share. VectorVest determines this forecast from a combination of recent earnings performance and traditional fiscal and/or calendar year earnings forecasts.

P/E (Price to Earnings Ratio): P/E shows the dollars required to buy one dollar of earnings. F has a P/E of 5.95. The average P/E of all the stocks in the VectorVest database is 97.58.

DS (Dividend Safety): DS is an indicator of the assurance that regular cash dividends will be declared and paid at current or at higher rates for the foreseeable future. F has a Dividend Safety of 46, which is poor on a scale of 0 to 99. Stocks with DS values above 75 typically have RS values well above 1.00 and EY levels that are much higher than DY.

DG (Dividend Growth Rate): Dividend Growth is a forecasted annual growth rate of a company's dividend based on historical dividend payments and dividend predictability.

YSG (YSG-Vector): YSG is an indicator which combines DY, DS and DG into a single value, and allows direct comparison of all dividend-paying stocks in the database.

These are the stocks to buy for somewhat above current income and long-term growth.
