The design, layout and information on the page is all up to you. Don’t copy this example exactly.

The idea of this summary is to give a quick but informed overview about the company and the investment opportunity. Think of it as a written report given to an extremely busy top-level executive in a company. The executive just has time to read one page and make a decision on whether to invest or not.
There is one single goal of this one-page document for the reader. It answers, “Should I invest money in this company or not?”Some questions this summary should answer:
o What does this company do?
o How does it earn money?
o What makes it a good or poor investment risk?
o Using quantifiable numbers, ratios, and graphs show the current and/or historical information of the
company focused on company equity.
o How does this company compare to others in the same field and market? Use quantifiable information
that is referenced facts or numbers.
The educational goal for this summary is to figure out what the vitally important investment information is for a company. In-depth investment research reports can be huge with dozens of graphs, ratios, industry analysis, and so much more. What does your group think the most valuable and informative information will be?The PowerPoint presentation must have at least one slide for each of the following:
o Your Investment Recommendation with at least 3 reasons to support your viewpoint o Business Description
o Industry Overview and Competitive Positioning
o Investment Summary
o Valuation
o Financial Analysis (using ratios)
o Investment Risks
o Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG) o References
All slide text and slide elements must be easily readable, especially labels on charts or graphs.
Any quoted sources, charts, graphs must be properly referenced using APA 7 style
