Value investors also frequently use the P/S ratio. This metric is found by dividing a stock's price with the company's revenue. Some people prefer this metric because sales are harder to manipulate on an income statement. This means it could be a truer performance indicator. RMAX has a P/S ratio of 0.97. This compares to its industry's average P/S of 1.65.
