A Word Of Caution

Stocks trading for less than $1 are loosely termed "penny" stocks. American Petro-Hunter, Incorporated (AAPH) 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 American Petro-Hunter, Inc. before making an investment decision.

Ockham's Rating

AAPH Revenue

There is not enough fundamental data available to properly evaluate this company at this time.

AAPH Cash Earnings

Price to Cash Earnings analysis is inappropriate for this company due to an insufficient positive cash earnings history. Rather than calculating a potentially misleading Price to Cash Earnings analysis, we have chosen to give AAPH a neutral Price to Cash Earnings outlook at this time. However, we should point out that this metric is a significant element in Ockham’s methodology to analyzing the outlook for any company. Therefore, for AAPH, our assessment is now more dependent on the Price to Sales analysis, and investors should be cautious with a company with very limited, if any, positive cash earnings.

AAPH Dividends

A positive Ockham rating does not require a company to pay out an inviting dividend or a dividend at all. However, we believe dividends provide a useful measure on a company's inherent expectations. 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 AAPH as neutral in terms of dividends because they have no history of paying a dividend and continue to reinvest that money for growth purposes.
