Looking for Value? Why It Might Be Time to Science Applications
Value investing is always a very popular strategy, and for good reason. After all, who doesn’t want to find stocks that have low PEs, solid outlooks, and decent dividends?

Fortunately for investors looking for this combination, we have identified a strong candidate which may be an impressive value; Science Applications International Corporation SAIC.

Science Applications in Focus

SAIC may be an interesting play thanks to its forward PE of 17.6 its P/S ratio of 0.7, and its decent dividend yield of 1.6%. These factors suggest that Science Applications is a pretty good value pick, as investors have to pay a relatively low level for each dollar of earnings, and that SAIC has decent revenue metrics to back up its earnings.

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION PS Ratio (TTM)

But before you think that Science Applications is just a pure value play, it is important to note that it has been seeing solid activity on the earnings estimate front as well. For current year earnings, the consensus has gone up by 1.6% in the past 30 days, thanks to five upward revisions in the past one months compared to none lower.

This estimate strength is actually enough to push SAIC to a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy), suggesting it is poised to outperform. You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

So really, Science Applications is looking great from a number of angles thanks to its PE below 20, a P/S ratio below one, and a strong Zacks Rank, meaning that this company could be a great choice for value investors at this time.

Special Report names this breakthrough and the 5 best stocks to exploit it. Like Apple in 2007, these companies are already strong and coiling for potential mega-gains.
