The aggregate average transaction price for
insider sales and purchases for YTD 2014 were calculated. This was completed
for over 9,000 companies on all US domestic exchanges, NYSE, NASDAQ, AMEX, OTC,
and OTCBB.
The list was reduced by eliminating companies showing only options,
dispositions, grants or sales greater than purchase activity. Further, if the aggregate average 2014 net insider
transaction prices was less than the current price they were excluded. Only
stocks with 2014 aggregate average insider transaction price greater than the current
stock price were selected. Lastly those remaining were selected after jumping
an additional hurdle of EV/EBIT value less than 10.

Aware, Inc. Reports Third
Quarter 2014 Financial Results
“Rick Moberg, Aware's
co-chief executive officer and chief financial officer, said, "We were
able to close some significant opportunities which led to a good quarter in
terms of revenue and profitability. Because of the nature of our
business, and at the request of most of our customers, we are generally
prohibited from referencing specific projects and customers by name.
In addition to closing these
transactions, we saw two other positive signs this quarter. We began to derive
revenue from our NEXA product line, which is earlier-than-expected evidence of
customer interest in these newly developed products. And, we closed a sizeable
opportunity for a commercial biometrics project and see others on the horizon.
For these and other reasons, we continue to be optimistic about the prospects
of our biometrics business.
We sold patents related to DSL diagnostic
technology this quarter for $2.6 million which resulted in a $2.1 million
gain. The vast majority of our remaining patent portfolio relates to
biometrics and imaging technology." “
