Before I talk about Part 1 of the Case Study of Armanino Foods (AMNF) where I explained how I did a preliminary analysis of the company.

At the end of the video, I talked about relative valuations like EV/EBIT and EV/FCF.  And the inverse of those valuations is earnings yield.  But I didn’t explain what either meant.

To fix this, on Friday I posted Why The P/E Ratio Is Useless – And How To Calculate EV.  In the post, I explain why P/E is a useless metric to rely on for long time value investors.  Show how to calculate EV, EV/EBIT, and EV/FCF.  And tell you what everything means.

To finish up explaining everything about part 1 of the case study, today’s post is all about earnings yield…

In the 6:08 video below I explain why earnings yield is important. How to calculate it without using P/E.  And what yield you should expect when evaluating companies.
