The Sectorial Indices are grouped in Banks and Financial Institutions, Industrials, Mining, Utilities, Insurance, Diverse, Industrial Employee, Mining Employee.

 

D. Index of Lucrativeness

Since 1986, the Lima Stock Exchange has published in its Daily Bulletin the LucrativenessIndex, which lets a share's yield be measured during a certain period of time, the patternperiod for this index being a year.

This index takes into account for its calculation the quotation at the closing of the day and the quotation at closing of the previous year, as well also as the benefits distributed both in dividends in cash and shares of paid up, and suscriptions rights.

For the Lucrativeness Index calculation of shares inscribed in the Stock Exchange, thefollowing considerations are taken:

a) The share quotation equals 100 at the previous closing.

b) It is assumed that the dividends distributed in cash are reinvested immediately in the purchase of more stock at the ex-calculated dividend quotation, thereby increasing the number of shares initially acquired.

c) Paid up stock received increases the number of shares acquired initially.

d) Does not take account of brokers' costs.

 
E. Frequency
It compares the number of sessions in which the share has established a quotation to the total number of sessions carried out in said period.

The calculation formula is the following:

Frequency (%)=(Number of days with quotation)/(Number of days in the period)

 
F. Market Capitalization

The stock market capitalization values the total of the shares listed on the Stock Exchange and calculates it by multiplying the number of shares in circulation by the closing quotation.
 
G. Price Earnings Ratio (PER)

Ratio between the market price and the earnings per share of stocks of a company. In theory, it represents the number of years it would take an investor to recover its investment, through profits distributed by the issuer.
 
H. Book Value

Estimated value per share resulting from the assessment of company assets and liabilities as recorded in the books of account. It is determined by dividing the stockholders' equity by the number of outstanding shares. In the case of companies having issued employment stock, this value takes into account the sum of both capital and employment stock.
