Foolish Small Cap 8 Revised Screen

The revised Foolish Small Cap 8 rules add profitability tests to the original small company checklist: return on equity and net profit margin at the last quarter, free cash flow and operating cash flow rather than reported earnings alone, plus year to date price return as the momentum leg.

Quarterly revenue and earnings per share round out each row, so a candidate that generates cash while losing margin is visible immediately. All eight columns populate through MarketXLS formulas from the ticker, which makes the screen easy to re-run over a fresh small cap universe.
