INDICATOR COMPONENTS
The AVERAGE SCORE combines the quantitative analysis of five widely-used investment decision making tools: Earnings,
Fundamental, Relative Valuation, Risk, and Price Momentum. 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.

DETAILED STOCK REPORT TIPS

The Thomson Reuters Stock Report is a comprehensive, company-specific analysis
that includes a proprietary Stock Rating along with underlying component indicators
and supportive data elements. The report is updated daily, although some of the
data elements and the ratings are updated weekly.
Average Score
The Average Score combines a quantitative analysis of five widely-used investment
decision making tools - Earnings, Fundamental, Relative Valuation, Risk, and Price
Momentum. First, a simple average of the five underlying component ratings is
calculated. Then, 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 score of 8 to 10 is considered
positive, 4 to 7 is neutral, and 1 to 3 is negative. These five factors may be
evaluated differently using alternative methodologies, and the importance of
individual factors varies across industry groups, market capitalization and
investment styles. Additional criteria should always be used to evaluate a stock.
A company must have sufficient data available for at least three of the five
component indicators in order to receive an overall Average Score. Approximately
85% of the stocks within the coverage universe meet the criteria to generate a
score.
Indicator Components
The five 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 within that industry classification.
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 surprise,
estimate revision, 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 periods (quarters or years).

Estimate Revisions - The number of up and down revisions and the average
Mean Estimate Trend

The mean estimates show how the consensus has changed over the past 30 days
and 90 days for the upcoming two quarters (when available) and two years. The
percentage change is calculated for the company as a means for comparison by
measuring the difference between the current consensus estimate and that of 90
days ago.
Analyst Recommendations
The Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S Mean is the mean recommendation of all analysts
covering the stock. The recommendations are presented on a five-point
standardized scale: strong buy, buy, hold, reduce, and sell.
Earnings Surprises
The surprise summary includes the total number of time periods (and
percentage) in the last 12 quarters (quarterly) or last 4 years (annual) in which
earnings surprises were positive, negative, or in-line. In order to be recognized
as a positive or negative surprise, the percent must be greater than 2% above or
2% below the consensus, respectively.
The surprise detail section includes a listing of the company's quarterly earnings
reported for the most recent 6 periods (quarters or years). The consensus
analyst estimate is provided to determine if the actual earnings report
represented a positive surprise, negative surprise, or in-line result.
Fundamental
The Fundamental Rating is based on a combination of four fundamental component
factors: profitability, debt, earnings quality, and dividend. Companies that do not
pay a dividend are not penalized. 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 three of the four fundamental
factors present in order to receive a score.
Profitability is comprised of four data elements.
- Revenue Growth: (Net Sales Previous Net Sales) / Previous Net Sales
- Gross Margin: Gross Profit / Net Sales
- Return on Equity: Net Income / Total Equity
- Net Margin: Net Profit / Net Sales
Debt is comprised of four data elements.
- Current Ratio: Current Assets / Current Liabilities
- Debt-to-Capital: Total Debt / Total Capital
- Interest Funding: Interest Expense / Operating Cash Flow
- Interest Coverage: (Pre-Tax Income + Interest Expense) / Interest Expense
Earnings Quality is comprised of two data elements.
- Days Sales in Inventory: 365 / (Cost of Goods Sold / Inventory)
- Days Sales in Receivables: 365 / (Net Sales (Revenues) / Receivables)
Dividend is comprised of four data elements. The company must have a current
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 either quarterly scores over the past three
years or annual scores over the past six years, depending on the reporting periods
for the country. The best and worst scores can be easily determined from the
values shown on the chart for each quarter or year.
Relative Valuation
The Relative Valuation Rating is based on a combination of three component
factors: Price to Sales (50% weight), Trailing P/E (25% weight), and Forward P/E
(25% 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. These common valuation metrics are evaluated
against the overall market, the index, and the company's own historic 5-year
averages. A stock needs to have at least one of the three relative valuation factors
in order to receive a score.
percentage change of those revisions within a 4 week period.

Recommendation Changes - The number of broker upgrades and downgrades in
Price to Sales: Close Price / (Sales for 4 Quarters or 1 Year / Shares
Outstanding)
the last 120 days.

Price Target
The price target is based on the predictions of analysts covering the stock and
shows the high, low and mean price expected within the next 12 months.
Earnings Per Share
The quarterly and annual earnings per share are presented when available, along
with the mean, high and low. Quarterly data is displayed for the past 4 quarters
(actual) and the next 2 quarters (estimated). Annual data is displayed for the past 2
years (actual) and the next 2 years (estimated).
Trailing P/E: Close Price / Most Recent 4 Quarters or 1 Year of Earnings

Forward P/E: Close Price / Upcoming 4 Quarters or 1 Year of Earnings
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
best / worst monthly returns in the past 60 months.

Volatility The standard deviation of the stock price over the last 90 days and
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 relevant index 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
months, and 6 months on a scale of 1 to 100.

Seasonality The average monthly return (price performance) for the current
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 relevant index is also displayed as a means of comparison.
