The Small Cap Screener Strategy

For those of you who favor small-cap stocks, I’ve tailored a screener that looks for certain key metrics to identify high-potential opportunities. Here are some filters I recommend:

  1. Price-to-Earnings Ratio Below 30: I look for stocks with a P/E ratio below 30 to ensure they have room for growth without being overvalued.
  2. Price-to-Sales Ratio Below 3: This indicates you’re not overpaying for each dollar of revenue generated.
  3. Five-Year Earnings Growth Above 5%: Consistent growth over five years is a good sign of stability.
  4. Return on Assets Above 5%: This shows the company is efficient with its assets, a crucial factor for long-term profitability.
  5. Debt-to-Equity Ratio Below 1: A manageable debt load is important, as excessive debt can strain a company’s resources.
  6. Current Ratio Above 1: This ensures the company can meet its short-term obligations.
  7. Net Profit Margin Above 10%: A solid profit margin indicates efficient operations and strong cash flow potential.
