May 21, 2011.  The last time I looked I got estimates for 2010, 2011 and 2012 of $2.71, $2.79 and $3.02 for earnings and $3.91, $4.18 and $4.18 for Cash Flow. Ratios haven't changed under new accting rules.                                  
Jan 2, 2011.  The current estimates are lower than the previous ones, with earnings before for 2010 and 2011 at $2.90 and $3.10 and cash flow at $4.05 and $4.48. Earnings for 2010 dropped 6.6%.                                    
Jun 8, 2010.  When I last looked at this stock, I got 2010 and 2011 earnings of $2.90 and $3.10 and CF of $4.50 and $4.48.                                                  
Apr 18, 2010. When I last looked at this stock, I got estimates for 2009 and 2010 of $2.73 and $3.05 for earnings and $3.00 and $4.00 for cash flow.                                              
New Ontario Legislation hit this stock hard.  Ontario to set new price for generic drugs.  Will other provinces follow Ontario?  BC and probably Quebec to follow suit.                                            
Keep an eye on dividends rises.  Keep an eye on Cash Flow and hopefully, this will be better than the estimate in 2009.                                                    
Jan 5, 2009.  I have lowered the earnings estimates slightly.  Old was $2.77 and $3.09 for 2009 and 2010.  They have not raised their dividend either. Analysts seem to have raised their cash flow estimates.                                    
All the insiders have more options than shares and they are not retaining their options.  Insider selling is high at over 5M.                                                  
Aug 11, 2009 I picked up cash flow estimates of $3.62 and $4.15, but since cash flow come in much lower than estimates last year, I am lowering them to $3 and $4.                                            
Jan 2009 I got earnings for 2008 year end (or Jan 2009) at $2.61 and it came in at $2.60.   I also picked up $3.00 per share as CF, this came in at $2.20                                              
2008.  There has been insider selling by those executives who are leaving this company.                                                        
Separate Co. in Feb 4, 2000 and went public in 2001.                                                              
                                                                       
How they make their money.                                                                  
Shoppers Drug Mart Corp. is a licensor of Shoppers Drug Mart in Canada and Pharmaprix in Quebec.  The company owns and operates Shoppers Home Health Care stores.  It also owns MediSystem Technologies Inc.                                   
and the new Murale Stores.                                                                    
This is a widely held company.                                                                  
                                                                       
For most ratios, lower is better when looking for a good stock price.  However, there are exceptions such as for yield and asset/liability ratios and here you want a higher ratios to indicate a good stock price.                                      
Also, for the Operational Profit Margin, a higher percentage is better.  With the OPM, you should only compare companies in similar industries.
