A Word Of Caution
Stocks trading for less than $1 are loosely termed "penny" stocks. Energy Quest, Incorporated (EQST) 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 Energy Quest, Inc. before making an investment decision.
Ockham's Rating
Rating Specific Information Withheld
Premium Access Only
EQST Revenue
Currently, the data available for EQST is not sufficient for us to properly evaluate the stock. We will resume coverage as the data allows.
EQST 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 EQST 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 EQST, 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.
EQST Dividends
While it is not necessary to pay an attractive dividend or a dividend at all, to receive a positive rating from Ockham, we view dividends as an additionally helpful measure in determining the future potential of any company. EQST is not paying a dividend at this time, nor do they have a history of paying a dividend for the last 10 years plus. Therefore, we are not utilizing the dividends portion in our study. If EQST initiates paying a dividend, we will begin to factor this into the Ockham approach.
