Amazon: Is 'Free Cash Flow' More Important Than Net Income? Graphic_rating_buy CGV
-3.55%

(closed on 06/24/08)

Questions:

Is it fair to consider short-term cash available because of delayed payment terms of Amazon's (AMZN) A/Ps as Free Cash Flow? Most of their “FCF” from 2007 vanished in the March 2008 Quarter.

CGG Veritas, a Veracious Bargain Graphic_rating_buy CGV
-65.83%
in 757 days
CGG Veritas (Compagnie Générale de Géophysique-Veritas, CGV) strikes many as a low P/B (Price/Book) stock. This France-based company is a leading global geophysical service provider to the oil and gas industry. Using Friday June 8’s market close of $44.04 and Euro to US$ exchange rate of 1.3372, CGV was trading at a P/B of merely 0.37!

That certainly sounds exciting; but this unfortunately is not the end of story. You could be greatly disappointed when you find out that its goodwill stands at $102.20/share out of its book value of $118.11. In other words, 86.5% of its book value...
