PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 13, 2003--ILX Resorts Incorporated (AMEX: ILX) was rated a "market outperformer" by MSN Money.
The rating is based on four key factors: the most current technical, fundamental, ownership, and valuation data available. The overall rating means ILX is expected to outperform the market over the next six months with less-than-average risk.
MSN's StockScouter model compares the fundamental and technical qualities of individual companies and their stocks to benchmarks that have proven statistically predictive of stock performance in the past, assigns an expected six-month return to each stock based on this statistical profile, and balances that return against expected volatility.
ILX's overall rating of 7 out of 10--with 10 being the best possible rating--was based on a price-to-earnings multiple lower than average for all stocks in the StockScouter universe. MSN also rated the slightly lower price-to-sales ratio positive for a small company like ILX.
MSN's Advisor Index alerts investors who specialize in undervalued stock to take particular note when a company's P/E falls significantly below the average for its industry. The index states that this may mean that the market has not yet discovered ILX Resorts as a buying opportunity.
