Uh Oh, They Called The Criminal Cramer to Hit The Wires With Trash(Stop Our Bleeding, Please.)http://www.thestreet.com/story/12844854/1/why-overstockcom-ostk-stock-is-gaining-today.html Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows: The revenue growth came in higher than the industry average of 0.4%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 13.4%. This growth in revenue does not appear to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, displayed by a decline in earnings per share. The company's current return on equity greatly increased when compared to its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a signal of significant strength within the corporation. Compared to other companies in the Internet & Catalog Retail industry and the overall market, OVERSTOCK.COM INC's return on equity significantly exceeds that of both the industry average and the S&P 500. OSTK has no debt to speak of therefore resulting in a debt-to-equity ratio of zero, which we consider to be a relatively favorable sign. Although the company had a strong debt-to-equity ratio, its quick ratio of 0.83 is somewhat weak and could be cause for future problems. The gross profit margin for OVERSTOCK.COM INC is rather low; currently it is at 18.83%. It has decreased from the same quarter the previous year. Along with this, the net profit margin of 0.57% trails that of the industry average. Net operating cash flow has significantly decreased to $0.38 million or 92.65% when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, when comparing to the industry average, the firm's growth rate is much lower. |
