VALUATION ANALISYS COMPONENT:NEUTRAL

Valuation Analysis is a simple comparison ofwhat the current market prices would representto an acquirer of the company in relation tonumerical aspects of their business. This isuseful at determining whether or not the stock isa good value. However stocks that are a goodvalue often have negative operational trends andgood value on its own is not a convincingargument that a stock should be bought.Conversely stocks that are overvalued often havepositive operational trends.

The stock is priced at an extremely exorbitantpremium in relation to the actual sales thecompany does. There is a substantial amount ofhype and positive expectations already built intothis share price. The company's market valuecould be slightly lower than its assets andpotential would suggest. The company has adecent amount of market share in its industry butit not an industry leader.
