Bluecollar, thank you for agreeing that using the shares outstanding at the end of a period in which a significant share issue has been done, is a negatively distorting methodology. The company had no time to earn revenues on the shares issued at the end of fiscal 2015. To be fair, we need to look at revenues achieved through 2015 since the last significant share issue: in 2013, revenues were $423,688 on 81,358 shares or $5.21 per share, and these revenues grew to $554,751 at the end of 2015 or $6.82 per share on these 81,358 shares, a compound growth rate of 14.4%. Proven, reliable growth.

Your method is very simplistic and conveniently ignores the dilutive DRIP shares issued to Subsidize the Cash Dividends. Not to mention the Balance Sheet and Off Balance Sheet Debt used to generate Revenue and more importantly Net Cash From Operations in the period you used.   Using your method, I could legitimately say that in the same period the Share count increased by 18% and ignore

For sure current market situation is much better then probably it will ever be in near future. How do you see this moving forward ? You also need to consider the flow of short sellers which are now dumping all their stocks. I dont see myself fleeing the market, so for sure eveything is for sale and for buying.
