Princeton, New Jersey – Sender Software LLC today is very pleased to announce that Stock Grader, its stock analyst app for iOS devices, will be free on the 22nd as a holiday promotion. Stock Grader uses a proprietary database and advanced computer algorithms to automatically grade stocks so the user can make informed investment decisions.

“If you’re searching for a little extra information on a stock before deciding whether to invest, this app may help you,” says Lance Davis of Bankrate. “The app gives a letter grade to a stock’s profitability, efficiency, liabilities and valuation, while also providing info on other criteria, such as the price-earnings ratio. It’s easy to use and can efficiently provide key information on potential investments.”

Feature Highlights:
* Uses 10-years of financial history across over 4000 companies
* Reports grades on profitability, valuation, efficiency, strength, growth, and overall
* Grades available relative to industry, sector, or all stocks
* Easy-to-understand letter grading system
* Useful for all levels of investors

After fetching the data and running the calculations, Stock Grader assigns the company’s stock a letter grade. Stock Grader grades on a basic A, B, C, D, or F system. Grades are assessed according to an analysis of five aspects of the business: Profitability, Valuation, Efficiency, Strength, and Growth.

The Profitability grade assesses a company’s ability to profit and grow. The grade on Efficiency reflects the company’s ability to use resources efficiently. The Strength grade indicates the amount of risk and how the company uses debt. The Valuation grades is a measure of how the company is currently priced. The Growth grade illustrates how fast the company has grown, and the quality of this growth. Each of these aspects contributes to the aggregated score that is calculated and displayed as an overall stock grade, but you may also view the scores for each of these sub-grades.

Within each category, Stock Grader calculates and displays the data that contributes to the calculations of each of the five categories. This data includes:

Profitability –
