A Word Of Caution

Stocks trading for less than $1 are loosely termed "penny" stocks. Ausam Energy Corporation (ASMEF) is selling for less than $1 per share. While, we stand by our ratings methodology for long term value investors, often times "penny" stocks will be more volatile. Because many "penny" stocks are lightly traded their stock price can fluctuate because of a single large trade. Also, there is generally less analyst coverage of such "penny" stocks and thus less information from which to base our rating.

Therefore, (and as always), check additional sources and available information regarding Ausam Energy Corp. before making an investment decision.

ASMEF Revenue

Unfortunately, we do not have reliable fundamental data available for ASMEF at this time. Coverage will resume as reliable data becomes available.

ASMEF Cash Earnings

When there is not enough positive Cash Earnings history available for a company, we at Ockham Research can find it quite difficult to actually rate their ability to generate cash. Such is the case with ASMEF. When a company has current positive cash earnings but not enough years of history to compare it to, we find the correlation of cash earnings to valuation significantly hindered. So with ASMEF, we will have to wait to see if there are a few more cycles of positive Cash Earnings numbers before we will be confident in our Cash Earnings analysis.

ASMEF Dividends

A strong dividend payment history is looked upon as a favorable characteristic on a company’s future and potentially can receive a positive Ockham rating. That being said, we don't require dividend payments for company's whose management has elected to forgo them entirely. While we do like to see companies with healthy and growing dividends, it is not appropriate for all companies, especially those focused on growth. We regard ASMEF as neutral in terms of dividends because they have no history of paying a dividend and continue to reinvest that money for growth purposes.
