7 • 3- to 5-year Projections • In the left hand column of each report, there is also a box which contains 3- to 5-year Projections for a stock price. There you can see the potential high and low average prices we forecast, the % price changes we project, and the expected compound annual total returns (price appreciation plus dividends). To make these calculations, analysts compare the expected prices out 3 to 5 years into the future (as shown in the Target Price Range and Projections box) with the recent price shown on the top of the report. • Investors whose primary goal is long-term price appreciation should study the 3- to 5-year projections carefully and choose stocks with above-average appreciation potential. For comparative purposes, you can find the Estimated Median Price Appreciation Potential for all approximately 1,700 stocks on the front page of the Summary & Index.

8 • 8.Price/Earnings Ratios • Information about Price/Earnings Ratios appears at the very top of the Value Line Page as well as in the statistical section in the center. • A Price/Earnings Ratio (often referred to as a P/E Ratio or simply a P/E) is probably the most widely used statistic in investing. • It is calculated by dividing the price of a stock (usually the current price) by twelve months of earnings. If, for example, a stock is selling at $40 a share and its annual earnings are $2.00 a share, its P/E is 20. • Few investors will buy a stock without knowing what its P/E is. Most frequently, investors will compare the P/E of one stock with that of another before making a decision to purchase or sell. Shippensburg University, Ship to Shore - ADVANCED
