Advanced Battery Technologies: A Steal of a Stock

I hold an MBA from a top 10 B-School and work as an equity analyst for a ~$1B HF. I have learned from world-class professors as well as portfolio managers with decades of experience. You're a hack investor pretending to the job of an equity analyst.

I have done hundreds of valuations which involve a little more than simply cut/paste my "analysis." I back up my conclusions with realistic assumptions through thorough due diligence. A DCF valuation is the model which attempts to uncover intrinsic value, so your claim of using a "variant of intrinsic value and DCF analysis" is hilarious.

Additionally, you claim to have a proprietary method for evaluating stocks but in your bio you note, "He believes in complete TRANSPARENCY and shares all his research and conclusions with the world" What a contradiction you are. Someone who has never worked in the investment management wants his readers to assume he has an expertise in valuation but refuses to share his most basic assumptions.

Advanced Battery Technologies: A Steal of a Stock

Answer the question. You're presenting this stock as a steal based upon a "fair value" of $9-$13, a possible 100%+ return. It's reasonable that you should be able to back up how you calculated that number. All I'm asking is that you share how you got that number.

If you consider that heckling then you should stop putting out "fair value" you can not back up.

I think the idea is interesting but could any of you (Stockerati preferred) actually back-up your idea with numbers? What basic assumptions are you making going forward to value this company? What model or reasonable multiple backs up such a bullish price target? Why is the market so far off on the value of this company?

Simply cut/pasting the company profile and financials does not qualify as analysis.

So you ran a screener which anyone could run and now you have four ideas that have outperformed looking back. Two ideas which are essentially trading at their all-time highs. Simply b/c these companies have outperformed in the past means nothing. Paultaut was right, you need to be looking forward rather than running basic screens.
No one should be celebrating you pointing out stocks that have likely already made their run.

Could you share with us what valuation method you are using to calculate your "fair value" of $9-$13?
