 |   | | | | | | | | | Thank you for requesting an analysis of Google Inc from VectorVest. The ticker symbol for Google Inc is GOOG. GOOG is traded on the NASDAQ - (xO) and options are available for this stock | | | | Analysis Summary | | GOOG is overvalued compared to its Price of $187.40 per share, has about average safety, and is currently rated a Buy. | | | | In-Depth Analysis | | Business: Google Inc, (GOOG) provides a web based search engine through its Google.com website. The Company offers a wide range of search options, including web, image, groups, directory, and news searches. | | | | Price: GOOG closed on 10/25/2004 at $187.40 per share | | | | Value: Value is a measure of a stock's current worth. GOOG has a current Value of $90.38 per share. Therefore, it is overvalued compared to its Price of $187.40 per share. Value is computed from forecasted earnings per share, forecasted earnings growth, profitability, interest, and inflation rates. Value increases when earnings, earnings growth rate and profitability increase, and when interest and inflation rates decrease. VectorVest advocates the purchase of undervalued stocks. At some point in time, a stock's Price and Value always will converge. | | | | RV (Relative Value): RV is an indicator of long-term price appreciation potential. GOOG has an RV of 1.23, which is good on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00. This indicator is far superior to a simple comparison of Price and Value because it is computed from an analysis of projected price appreciation three years out, AAA Corporate Bond Rates, and risk. RV solves the riddle of whether it is preferable to buy High growth, High P/E stocks, or Low growth, Low P/E stocks. VectorVest favors the purchase of stocks with RV ratings above 1.00. | | | | RS (Relative Safety): RS is an indicator of risk. GOOG has an RS rating of 0.96, which is fair on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00. RS is computed from an analysis of the consistency and predictability of a company's financial performance, debt to equity ratio, sales volume, business longevity, price volatility and other factors. A stock with an RS rating greater than 1.00 is safer and more predictable than the average stock in the VectorVest database. VectorVest favors the purchase of stocks of companies with consistent, predictable financial performance. | | | | RT (Relative Timing): RT is a fast, smart, accurate indicator of a stock's price trend. GOOG has a Relative Timing rating of 1.85, which is excellent on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00. RT is computed from an analysis of the direction, magnitude, and dynamics of a stock's price movements over one day, one week, one quarter and one year time periods. Once a stock's price has established a strong trend, it is expected to continue in that trend for the short-term. If a trend dissipates, RT will gravitate toward 1.00. RT will explode from bottoms, dive from tops, and reflect changes in price momentum. VectorVest favors the purchase of stocks with RT ratings above 1.00. | | | | VST (VST-Vector): VST is the master indicator for ranking every stock in the VectorVest database. GOOG has a VST rating of 1.43, which is excellent on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00. VST is computed from the square root of a weighted sum of the squares of RV, RS, and RT. Stocks with the highest VST ratings have the best combinations of Value, Safety and Timing. These are the stocks to own for above average, long-term capital appreciation. VectorVest advocates the purchase of safe, undervalued stocks rising in price. The efficacy of this indicator was demonstrated in a study conducted at the University of Chicago which showed that high VST stocks outperformed the S&P 500 by 583.1% over the six year period from 1996 through 2002. | | | | CI (Comfort Index): CI is an indicator which reflects a stock's ability to resist severe and/or lengthy price declines. GOOG has a CI rating of 1.91, which is excellent on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00. CI is quite different from RS in that it is based solely upon a stock's long-term price history. VectorVest advocates the purchase of high CI stocks. | | | | GRT (Earnings Growth Rate): GRT reflects a company's one to three year forecasted earnings growth rate in percent per year. GOOG has a forecasted Earnings Growth Rate of 35.00%, which VectorVest considers to be excellent. GRT is computed from historical, current and forecasted earnings data. It is updated each week for every stock in the VectorVest database. GRT often foretells a stock's future price trend. If a stock's GRT trend is upward, the stock's price will likely rise. If GRT is trending downward, the stock's Price will probably fall. VectorVest favors the purchase of stocks whose GRT is rising and is greater than the sum of current inflation and interest rates, (7.93%). | | | | Recommendation (REC): VectorVest gives a Buy, Sell, Hold recommendation on every stock, every day. GOOG has a Buy recommendation. REC reflects the cumulative effect of all the VectorVest parameters working together. These parameters are designed to help investors buy safe, undervalued stocks rising in price. They also help investors avoid or sell risky, overvalued stocks falling in price. VectorVest recommends that investors buy high VST-Vector, Buy-rated stocks in rising markets. | | | | Stop (Stop-Price): Stop is an indicator of when to sell a long position or cover a short position. GOOG has a Stop of $141.15 per share. This is $46.24 below GOOG's current closing Price. A stock's Stop is computed from a 13 week moving average of its closing prices, and is fine-tuned according to the stock's fundamentals. High RV, high RS stocks have lower Stops, and low RV, low RS stocks have higher Stops. In the VectorVest system, a stock gets a 'B' or 'H' recommendation if its Price is above its Stop and an 'S' recommendation if its Price is below its Stop. | | | | EPS (Earnings per Share): EPS stands for leading 12 months Earnings Per Share. GOOG has a forecasted EPS of $2.62 per share. VectorVest determines this forecast from a combination of recent earnings performance and traditional fiscal and/or calendar year earnings forecasts. | | | | P/E (Price to Earnings Ratio): P/E is a popular measure of stock valuation which shows the dollars required to buy one dollar of earnings. GOOG has a P/E of 71.53. This ratio may be deemed to be high or low depending upon your frame of reference. The average P/E of all the stocks in the VectorVest database is 25.05. P/E is computed daily using the formula: P/E = Price/EPS. | | | | EY (Earnings Yield): EY reflects earnings per share as a percent of Price. EY is related to P/E via the formula, EY = 100 / (P/E), and may be used in place of P/E as a measure of valuation. EY has the advantages that it is always determinate and can reflect negative earnings. GOOG has an EY of 1.40 percent. This is below the current average of 4.00% for all the stocks in the VectorVest database. EY equals 100 x (EPS/Price). | | | | GPE (Growth to P/E Ratio): GPE is another popular measure of stock valuation. It compares earnings growth rate to P/E ratio. GOOG has a GPE rating of 0.50. High growth stocks are believed to be able to justify high P/E ratios. A stock is commonly considered to be undervalued when GPE is greater than 1.00 and overvalued when GPE is below 1.00. Unfortunately, this rule of thumb does not take into account the effect of interest rates on P/E ratios. The operative GPE ratio of 1.00 is valid when and only when interest rates equal 10%. With long-term interest rates currently at 5.43%, the operative GPE ratio is 0.29. Therefore, GOOG may be considered to be undervalued. | | | | DIV (Dividend): VectorVest reports annual, regular, cash dividends as indicated by the most recent payments. Special distributions, one-time payments, stock dividends, etc., are not generally included in DIV. GOOG does not pay a dividend. | | | | DY (Dividend Yield): DY reflects earnings per share as a percent of Price. GOOG does not pay a dividend, so it does not have a Dividend Yield rating. . DY equals 100 x (DIV/Price). It is useful to compare DY with EY. If DY is not significantly lower than EY, the dividend payment may be in jeopardy. | | | DS (Dividend Safety): DS is an indicator of the assurance that regular cash dividends will be declared and paid at current or at higher rates for the foreseeable future. GOOG does not pay a dividend, so it does not have a Dividend Safety rating . Stocks with DS values above 75 typically have RS values well above 1.00 and EY levels that are much higher than DY. | | | | DG (Dividend Growth Rate): Dividend Growth is a subtle yet important indicator of a company's financial performance. It also provides some insight into the board's outlook on the company's ability to increase earnings. GOOG does not pay a dividend, so it does not have a Dividend Growth rating . | | | | YSG (YSG-Vector): YSG is an indicator which combines DIV, DY and DG into a single value, and allows direct comparison of all dividend-paying stocks in the database. GOOG does not pay a dividend, so it does not have a YSG rating . Stocks with the highest YSG values have the best combinations of Dividend Yield, Safety and Growth. These are the stocks to buy for above average current income and long-term growth. | | | | Open: GOOG opened trading at a price of $176.28 per share on 10/25/2004. | | | | High: GOOG traded at a High price of $194.43 per share on 10/25/2004. | | | | Low: GOOG traded at a Low price of $172.55 per share on 10/25/2004 | | | | Close: GOOG closed trading at price $187.40 per share on 10/25/2004.
