We’ve selected seven undervalued tech stocks for smart investors to consider, using a lens of the stock’s Piotroski F-Score, a recent addition to Fintel’s roster of quant and scoring dashboards. The scoring methodology was first outlined in Joseph Piotroski’s 2000-published paper titled “Value Investing: The Use of Historical Financial Statement Information to Separate Winners from Losers.” The paper described a method of using data from a company’s financial reports to help predict future performance.
The 9-point discrete score, where 9 is the best, that ranks companies based on a number of financial factors. To calculate the score, we compare nine factors from the two most recent annual reports. If the change in the factor is “good”, then we add one to the score. If the change in the factor is “not good”, then we add zero.
