The Female Health Company

The Female Health Company is an AMEX listed security that has been trading in a range between $1.45 and $2.98 over the past year. With 24,527,400 shares outstanding, a recent price of $2.30 gives a total market capitalization of $56,413,019. While there are certainly larger companies, The Female Health Company has definitely earned its place in the pack. Last year, The Female Health Company created $0.00 in earnings for every share outstanding.

The Female Health Company is currently priced by the market at 756.60 times last year’s earnings. Many trading multiples around the world are quite attractive these days, but don’t be fooled. A Price to Earnings ratio of 0 simply means that the security didn’t make any money last year.

With a share price under $50 a share and earnings per share below $1 a share, The Female Health Company could be an interesting value proposition.
