Use this page to find a publicly traded company that you find
interesting and would like to study for this class. The company should not be a
bank or a financial institution of any kind including insurance companies.
Assignment Expectations:
Write a two to three page paper discussing what you find
interesting about this company, and whether or not you think this company will
have a successful future. Get to the company’s web site, into the “investors
relations” section and provide some financial highlights of your company for
the past year. Indicate which stock exchange the company is listed on and what
was the past 12 month rate of return (% gain or loss) to investors who bought
shares of this company a year ago and sold the shares yesterday. This rate of
return is called the one-year Holding Period Return, or HPR. Also state what is
the most recent price of the shares on the company?
In addition discuss briefly some information about the top
management team including the CEO and CFO. If there are any issues involved
with the company that relate to the issues discussed in the case assignment,
mention them briefly as well.
Assignment
One specialized type of security is called an equity futures.
This is a contract that guarantees you a share of a particular company to be
delivered to you not today, but sometime in the future, at a price that is
determined by the market right now. This price is usually called the futures
price of the stock (note – the term is plural – “futures”). If you ‘buy’ this
futures, you don’t pay for the shares now. You are actually signing a contract
whereby you are committed to pay that price in a particular date in the future,
and you are guaranteed to receive one share of the company at that time,
irrespective of its actual market price at that future date. Suppose for
example that the futures price of the XYZ company is $40. Suppose you ‘buy’ a
6-months futures contract. If six months later the share price is $45, you gain
$5 per share. If the market price in 6 months is only $35, then you lose $5.

Take a look at the five year chart for your reference company
(the one you chose for SLP1). Using this chart and other information you can
find on this company, write a paper answering the following question:
What do you think would the futures price of 100 shares of your
reference company to be delivered to you in one year be right now?
