Internet Gold Golden Lines Ltd.

Internet Gold Golden Lines Ltd. is a NASDAQ listed security that has been trading in a range between $4.91 and $17.32 over the past year. With 21,864,410 shares outstanding, a recent price of $10.93 gives a total market capitalization of $237,010,208. While there are certainly larger companies, Internet Gold Golden Lines Ltd. has definitely earned its place in the pack. Last year, Internet Gold Golden Lines Ltd. created $0.42 in earnings for every share outstanding.

Internet Gold Golden Lines Ltd. is currently priced by the market at 26.00 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, Internet Gold Golden Lines Ltd. could be an interesting value proposition. Consistent earnings are the key to high valuations and this security is well on its way.
