This section provides a view to some of the company's financial information, including earnings and profitability.

• P/E Ratio - This ratio is calculated by dividing the current price by the Primary Earnings Per Share (trailing-twelve-months). In some cases the value may be in red, which means the EPS for that security is negative. When this occurs the price is multiplied (not divided) by the EPS to establish a negative P/E which can be useful when comparing to other securities with negative P/E (EPS) values. The P/E ratio on this system is capped at 140, meaning the P/E value for any security with a ratio greater than 140 or less than -140 is adjusted accordingly.
• EPS - Earnings Per Share. The Adjusted Income Available to Common Shareholders for the trailing 12 months divided by the trailing 12 month weighted average shares outstanding.
• EPS Growth - Estimated growth in Earnings Per Share for the next reporting quarter.
   
• EBITDA (per share) - The accounting acronym EBITDA stands for "Earnings Before Interest, Tax and Depreciation Accumulated." It allows companies to report a slightly higher number than the traditional EBIT. The total EBITDA is divided by the total shares outstanding.

   
• P/B Ratio - Is an indicator, expressed in percent, of how close - or far apart - a security's current trade price is compared to it's book value. A negative value indicates a security is currently trading above its book value.
• Book Value - Represents the per share Equity for Common Shareholders.
   
• P/S Ratio - Current Price divided by the Sales Per Share for the trailing 12 months.
• Sales per share - This value is the trailing 12 month Total Revenue divided by the Average Primary Shares Outstanding for the trailing 12 months.
   
• PEG Ratio - Forward-looking measure used to measure a stock's valuation against its projected growth rate (P/E Ratio divided by 5-yr expected growth).
   
• Cash per Share - This is the Total Cash plus Short Term Investments divided by the Shares Outstanding at the end of the most recent fiscal quarter.
   
• Equity Return - This value is the Income Available to Common Stockholders for the trailing 12 months divided by the Common Equity and is expressed as a percentage (this value is capped at 201 and -201, respectively).
• Debt / Equity - This ratio is Total Debt for the most recent fiscal quarter divided by Total Shareholder Equity for the same period (this value is capped at 201 and -201, respectively).
   
• Profit Margin - This value is the Income After Taxes for the trailing 12 months divided by Total Revenue for the same period and is expressed as a percentage (this value is capped at 121 and -121, respectively).
• Operating Margin - This value is capped at 121 and -121, respectively.
   
• Dividend Yield - This value is the current percentage dividend yield, calculated using the Indicated Annual Dividend divided by the current price.
   
• Total Shares Outstanding - The number of shares of common stock currently outstanding -- the number of shares issued in total minus the shares held in treasury.
• Public Float - The number of freely traded shares in the hands of the public. Float is calculated as Shares Outstanding minus Shares Owned by Insiders and Owners.
