3. Whether to invest or not to invest in shares of a company:
A prospectus is a formal document that is required by and filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC) that provides details about an investment offering to the
public. A prospectus is filed for offerings of stocks, bonds, and mutual funds.
The prospectus can help investors make more informed investment decisions because it
contains a host of relevant information about the investment or security.
The prospectus provides details about the investment/security and the offering.
A mutual fund prospectus contains details on investment objectives, strategies,
performance, distribution policy, fees, and fund management.
The risks of the investment are disclosed in the prospectus.
A prospectus includes some of the following information:
A brief summary of the company’s background and financial information
The name of the company issuing the stock
The number of shares
Type of securities being offered
Whether an offering is public or private
Names of the company’s principals
Names of the banks or financial companies performing the underwriting
Why Is a Prospectus Useful for Investors?
It is very useful to investors as it informs them of the risks involved with investing in the
security or fund. Although a company might be raising capital through stock or bond
issuance, investors should study the financials of the company to ensure the company is
financially viable enough to honor its commitments.
What To Look for When Investing in a Company ?

2. Review the Company Business Model. ...
3. Consider What Competitive Advantages a Company Has. ...
4. Examine Revenue Trends and Price History. ...
5. Assess Net Income Growth Year to Year. ...
6. Examine the Profit Margin. ...
7. Compare Debt-to-Equity Ratio.
Review the Company Business Model-How a company makes money is referred to as its
“business model.” While there isn’t a single way to run a business, successful companies
should be positioning themselves to maximize profits.
What to look for: When researching a company’s business model, learn about its products
and services, target market, and the industry it’s competing in.
4. Some companies (such as Amazon) are going after a wider audience with low prices and
higher volume sales. Other companies (such as Apple) create exclusive devices that users
gladly pay a premium for.
Consider What Competitive Advantages a Company has-All businesses are competing for
their customers’ business, and a successful company will continually have an advantage over
the competition. A company with an edge over its competition is a promising sign of finding
a good stock to invest in.
Examine Revenue Trends and Price History-Revenue is the total sales of products and
services that a company brings in. Evaluating a company’s revenue history can show you
whether the company is growing or in decline. When reviewing revenue trends, a year-over-
year increase is a sign that companies are making the right moves and have strong sales
strategies. While increasing revenue each quarter isn’t always realistic, seeing a decline over
multiple consecutive quarters may be a troubling sign for investors.
Assess Net Income Growth Year to Year-Reviewing the net income (a company’s revenue
minus expenses and depreciation) can also be a good indicator of company growth
If a company has decreasing net income year-over-year, its growth may not be sustainable.
Examine the Profit Margin-Sometimes referred to as net profit margin, profit margin is the
percentage of revenue that the company takes in as profit (after expenses, interest, and taxes
have been paid). A company with steady profit margins means it is operationally efficient and
can keep prices low. Increasing profit margins may signal that a company is a leader in its
industry and can command higher prices for products or services. Steady and/or growing
profit margins are a good sign for investors, as those profits should reward stakeholders with
returns.
Compare Debt-to-Equity Ratio: When researching company financials, take a look at
the debt-to-equity ratio to see how well the company manages its total debt. To find the ratio,
compare the total debt to the total equity shareholders have in the company.
Being over-leveraged can limit a company’s choices in making business decisions. A good
rule of thumb is finding a company that has a 2:1 (or less) ratio.
Analyze Price-to-Earnings (P/E) Ratio: The price-to-earnings ratio is a key indicator of
whether a company’s stock is currently overpriced. To find the P/E ratio, compare the current
stock price to the annual earnings-per-share (EPS). A higher P/E ratio may be a sign that the
company is currently overvalued. A lower P/E ratio may be a sign that the company is
currently undervalued.
Business (a description of the company's operation)
Risk Factors
Legal Proceedings
Selected Financial Data
Management's Discussion and Analysis of the Financial Condition
Business description explains what the company does, who its customers are, and the
primary industry in which it operates.
A potential investor should assess how the company has performed over a period.
Also, the financial statements should indicate whether the balance sheet has become
5. stronger or weaker over time. The cash flow statement should show whether the
business has been a generator of cash or a user of cash. It is possible for firms to
report net income while, at the same time, having negative cash flow. Compare the
income statement with the cash flow statement for any red flags.
For example, steady cash flows are indicative of a healthy and thriving company, whereas
large fluctuations in cash flows could signal that a company is experiencing trouble. Large
amounts of cash on hand could indicate that more accounts are being settled than work
received.
Look for Unusual Risk Factors
Potential investors should also consider any risk factors associated with the company. One
risk factor is legal proceedings that the company might be facing. Litigation activities should
be disclosed in the company information in a section called Legal Proceedings.
Legal Proceedings section will reveal any significant lawsuits affecting the company.3
While legal issues should be assessed, they may not be as severe as they seem.
