What the price means

Price as of Oct 26

$10.66+26.3% that day

Company value: $287M; Share price times all shares
Price vs sales: 0.56x; No profit over the last year, so this compares value with sales instead
Cash vs value: 47%; A big cushion: cash is a large part of what the company is worth
Debt vs value: 382%; Owes more than the whole company is worth

From EAF's last IEX trade and its SEC filings (profits and sales over the last four quarters). A starting point for research, not a verdict.

Move the sliders to your own view of EAF. Starting points are the company's recent numbers (it isn't profitable yet, so the margin starts at a 10% guess).

Forum talk counts mentions of EAF in popular online stock forums, a slice of the internet rather than all of it. Company lookups show interest in the company itself, which can come from news that isn't about the stock. Attention isn't quality.
