o Justificationo Outlook

● Long Term Investment Criteriao Justificationo Outlook

Our RecommendationsShort-Term● Amazon (AMZN)● Buy for the year,

reevaluate at the end of the period

● Must be willing to take risk

Long-Term● Exxon Mobil (XOM)● Buy and hold, ride out

oil price volatility● Long term prospects in

alternatives will also improve company standing forward

Amazon- Short Term● Currently Trading (4/20) at $389.51● Analyst Estimate of $400.00 (Analyst

Median)● EPSxP/E Price: N/A*● 2014 Revenue: 88.99B● Profit Margin: -.27%● ROE: -2.35%● ROA: .24%

Amazon● Amazon consistently records a loss.

o *This, in turn, prevents us from calculating P/E, so it is difficult to come to an appropriate share price without a proper valuation model.

● However, despite this lack of profitability, Amazon’s stock has performed exceptionally well.

● No dividend declared or paid
