Ben Graham invested in situations where the company's stock price was lower than its net-cash. He assigned some value to the company's other current asset. The value is called Net Current Asset Value (NCAV). One research study, covering the years 1970 through 1983 showed that portfolios picked at the beginning of each year, and held for one year, returned 29.4 percent, on average, over the 13-year period, compared to 11.5 percent for the S&P 500 Index. Other studies of Graham's strategy produced similar results.

In the calculation of a company's Net Cash per Share, assets other than cash and short term investments are considered to be worth nothing.

But sometimes a company's price may be lower than its net-cash.

Time Finance's Net Cash per Share for the fiscal year that ended in May. 2025 is calculated as

Net Cash per Share (A: May. 2025 )
=(Cash, Cash Equivalents, Marketable Securities-Total Liabilities-Minority Interest)/Shares Outstanding (EOP)
=(4.97-158.571-0)/91.679
