Although Net Income and Earnings-per-Share (EPS) are the most widely used parameter in measuring a company's profitability and valuation, it is the least reliable. The reason is that reported earnings can be manipulated easily by adjusting any numbers such as Depreciation, Depletion and Amotorization and non-recurring items.
EPS is most useful for companies that have:
A predictable business
Consistent accounting methods
And few restructurings
The dividend paid to preferred stocks needs to be subtracted from the total net income in the calculation of EPS because common stock holders are not entitled to that part of the net income.
Be Aware
Warren Buffett looks for consistency and upward long term trend. Because of share repurchase it is possible for net earnings trend to differ from EPS trend. He preferred Net Income over EPS. The companies with durable competitive advantage companies report higher % net earnings to total revenues.
Important: If a company is showing net earnings history greater than 20% on total revenues, it is probably benefiting from a long term competitive advantage.
If net earnings is less than 10%, likely to be in a highly competitive business.

Polonia Bancorp (Polonia Bancorp) Business Description
Polonia Bancorp Inc is a Maryland corporation that was incorporated in August 2011. The Company is headquartered in Huntingdon Valley and operates as a community-oriented financial institution dedicated to serving the financial services needs of consumers and businesses within its market areas. The Bank is engaged mainly in the business of attracting deposits from the general public and using using such funds to originate loans. Polonia Bank also maintains an investment portfolio. Polonia Bank's primary federal regulator is the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC). Its loan portfolio consists of one- to four-family residential real estate loans, multi-family and nonresidential real estate loans, home equity loans, commercial loans and consumer loans. Currently, it offers only fixed-rate mortgage products. The one- to four-family residential real estate loans are normally originated with up to 30-year terms, such loans typically remain outstanding for substantially shorter periods because borrowers often prepay their loans in full upon sale of the property pledged as security or upon refinancing the original loan. The multi-family and nonresidential real estate loans are generally secured by apartment buildings, small office buildings and owner-occupied properties. It offers loans with adjustable interest rates tied to a market index in its market area. It offers consumer loans in the form of loans secured by savings accounts or time deposits. The Company has the legal authority to invest in various types of liquid assets, including U.S. Treasury obligations, securities of various federal agencies and municipal governments, corporate securities, mortgage-backed securities, deposits at the FHLB of Pittsburgh and time deposits of federally insured institutions. The Company faces competition for the attraction of deposits and origination of loans. The Company's direct competition for deposits has historically come from the several financial institutions operating in its market areas and, to a lesser extent, from other financial service companies such as brokerage firms, credit unions and insurance companies. The Company is subject to regulation, supervision and examination by the Federal Reserve Board and the OCC, its main federal regulator, and by the FDIC, as insurer of its deposits.
