report for a complete breakdown of JAS's fundamental analysis. The picture above illustrates, in a simple way, how
the MarketGrader stock rating system works. Every
day the system gathers up to five years of historical
financial data from each company it covers. All data
compiled is from annual and quarterly company
reports and it does not include any analyst
estimates, price targets or any other form of forward
looking information. All numbers are then broken
down into four unique grading categories: Growth,
Value, Profitability and Cash Flow. Each category
contains six fundamental indicators, determined by
the company's industry. Some of the figures used in
the creation of these indicators (for example
earnings from operations or cash flow), are not
incorporated in the analysis as reported by the
companies, but built by the MarketGrader system
from its own methodology to ensure identical
accounting standards across all companies. Each of
the 24 fundamental indicators is individually graded
based on a nine letter scale of A+ to F. The grade
composition chart on the left breaks down the
analysis of the company presented in this report,
allowing you to see the indicators used. It provides a
bird's eye view of the company's strengths and
weaknesses. Pages two and three of the report
explain the factors contributing to each indicator's
grade. Finally, the MarketGrader system compiles all
24 fundamental indicators into an overall company
grade, on a 0 to 100 scale. This final grade
determines the MarketGrader Buy, Hold or Sell
rating, illustrated by the traffic light on the upper
right corner of every page on this report.
