GuruFocus Financial Strength Rank measures how strong a company’s financial situation is. It is based on these factors

1. The debt burden that the company has as measured by its Interest coverage (current year).
2. Debt to revenue ratio. The lower, the better
3. Altman Z-score.

A company ranks high with financial strength is likely to withstand any business slowdowns and recessions.

GuruFocus Profitability Rank ranks how profitable a company is and how likely the company’s business will stay that way. It is based on these factors:

1. Operating Margin
2. Trend of the Operating Margin (5-year average). The company with an uptrend profit margin has a higher rank.
••3. Consistency of the profitability
4. Piotroski F-Score
5. Predictability Rank•

The maximum rank is 10. A rank of 7 or higher means a higher profitability and may stay that way. A rank of 3 or lower indicates that the company has had trouble to make a profit.

Profitability Rank is not directly related to the Financial Strength Rank. But if a company is consistently profitable, its financial strength will be stronger.

Expensive Insider Buys Reported from Four CEOs
May 20, 2013
Jim Simons,Chuck Royce - Expensive Insider Buys Reported From Four CEOs
It is interesting to watch insider buys from top executives like CEOs and CFOs because they are savvy buyers of their companies' shares. One long-term study showed that they beat the market on average by six percentage points a year. Over 20 years that's the difference between turning $10,000 into $67,000 and turning it into $194,000.

Business Description

MoSys, Inc. was incorporated in California in September 1991, and reincorporated in September 2000 in Delaware. The Company designs, develops, markets and licenses high-performance semiconductor memory and high-speed parallel and serial interface intellectual property (IP) used by the semiconductor industry and communications, networking and storage equipment manufacturers. In February 2010, the Company announced the commencement of a new product initiative to develop a family of integrated circuit (IC) products under the 'Bandwidth Engine' product name. Bandwidth Engine ICs combine the Company's high-density embedded memory with its high-speed 10 Gigabits per second interface (I/O) technology and are initially being marketed to networking systems companies. The Company has developed a patented semiconductor memory technology, called 1T-SRAM, which offers a combination of high density, low power consumption and high-speed at performance and cost levels that other available memory technologies do not match. It licenses this technology to companies that incorporate, or embed, memory on complex integrated circuits, or ICs, such as system-on-chips, or SoCs. It also designs, develops, markets and licenses high-speed parallel and serial interface, or I/O, IP used by the semiconductor industry and electronic product manufacturers. Interface IP includes physical layer (PHY) circuitry that allows ICs to communicate with each other or to discrete memory devices in networking, storage, computer and consumer devices. It supports serial I/O technologies such as 10G KR, XAUI, PCI Express and SATA, as well as parallel interfaces like DDR3. It generates revenue from the licensing of its memory and I/O technology, and its customers pay it fees for licensing, non-recurring engineering services, royalties, and maintenance and support. Royalty revenues are typically earned under its license agreements when its licensees manufacture or sell products that incorporate any of its memory technologies. The Company's 1T-SRAM technologies compete mainly with traditional SRAM. Its I/O IP solutions compete with offerings from Synopsys, Inc.
