$APT Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:

The revenue growth came in higher than the industry average of 2.7%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly increased by 9.8%. This growth in revenue appears to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, improving the earnings per share.
APT has no debt to speak of therefore resulting in a debt-to-equity ratio of zero, which we consider to be a relatively favorable sign. Along with this, the company maintains a quick ratio of 12.72, which clearly demonstrates the ability to cover short-term cash needs.
Powered by its strong earnings growth of 150.00% and other important driving factors, this stock has surged by 130.26% over the past year, outperforming the rise in the S&P 500 Index during the same period. Regarding the stock's future course, although almost any stock can fall in a broad market decline, APT should continue to move higher despite the fact that it has already enjoyed a very nice gain in the past year.
ALPHA PRO TECH LTD reported significant earnings per share improvement in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company has demonstrated a pattern of positive earnings per share growth over the past two years. During the past fiscal year, ALPHA PRO TECH LTD increased its bottom line by earning $0.11 versus $0.05 in the prior year.
The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the S&P 500 and the Building Products industry. The net income increased by 88.4% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from $0.48 million to $0.90 million. http://www.thestreet.com/story/12909805/1/why-alpha-pro-tech-apt-stock-surged-to-a-new-one-year-high-today.html
