Stock market pick: Computer Modelling Group reports higher revenue, lower earnings

Computer Modelling Group Ltd., symbol CMG on Toronto, makes software and supplies services that help its clients get as much oil as possible from their existing wells. The stock market pick makes mostly recurring revenue from software licences and consulting contracts. That gives it long-term stability.

Computer Modelling Group is one of the stocks we analyze in Stock Pickers Digest, our newsletter for aggressive investing.

In the three months ended March 31, 2011, Computer Modelling’s revenue rose 0.6%, to $14.4 million from $14.3 million a year earlier. A 17% increase in consulting and contract research revenue more than offset a 2% drop in software licence sales due to the strong Canadian dollar.

Earnings fell 11.1%, to $4.8 million, or $0.26 a share, from $5.4 million, or $0.30 a share. The company added employees to support its continued growth, and increased its research spending.

The stock market pick holds cash of $41.8 million, and has no long-term debt. The company is a dividend paying stock. It pays a quarterly dividend of $0.21 a share. The annual rate $0.84 yields 6.0%.
