Two weeks ago you discovered the SEC website and last week you investigated FINVIZ and some of their features. This week you are asked to explore these websites looking at a publicly traded company of your choosing and one that has not been taken by your fellow students.

Your task is to:

1) Select a company that is not well known to the general public (i.e. not Apple, Walmart, or Nike)and give a summary of the company. Your chosen company can not be in any of the major indexes (S&P, Nasdaq, or Dow). Tell us what they do and how they make money (become profitable). Include their country of origin.

2) What sector and industry are they in?

3) What is their capitalization (market price and shares outstanding)?

4) What did they report for profits over the last 4 quarters and what is their historical performance each quarter (percent)?

5) What is their profit margin based on operating income and net income?

6) Who is one of their competitors and what is their performance?

7) Explain how your company is performing compared to its competitor (give 5 examples to validate your analysis).
