Here are a few value investment ideas for you to research over the weekend.
ERP5 = Cheap good quality companies
To find good quality undervalued companies this stock screen used the ERP5 rank investment strategy.
It is an investment strategy developed by two good friends of mine that finds undervalued quality companies based on the following for four ratios:
- Price to Book,
- Earnings Yield,
- Return on invested capital (ROIC) and
- 5 year average ROIC.
The lower the ERP5 rank the more undervalued the company is.
ERP5 back test
We tested the ERP5 rank investment strategy with very good results. Over the 12 year period from June 1999 to June 2011 it substantially outperformed the market as well as the Magic Formula investment strategy.

Undervalued high quality companies
The ERP5 rank not only looks for undervalued companies with a low price to book and a high earning yield (EBIT to EV), it also looks for quality companies that had a high one and five year return on invested capital.
