Dot Hill Systems Corp. is currently priced by the market at 0.00 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, Dot Hill Systems Corp. is unlikely to be an interesting value proposition. Consistent earnings are the key to high valuations and this security is not on its way.
