Winland Electronics Inc.

Winland Electronics Inc. is an AMEX listed security that has been trading in a range between $2.96 and $4.73 over the past year. With 3,600,860 shares outstanding, a recent price of $3.05 gives a total market capitalization of $11,018,631. While there are certainly larger companies, Winland Electronics Inc. has definitely earned its place in the pack. Last year, Winland Electronics Inc. created $0.12 in earnings for every share outstanding.

Winland Electronics Inc. is currently priced by the market at 24.90 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, Winland Electronics Inc. could be an interesting value proposition.
