Screening Filters

1. Market Cap: 10,000,000 – 500,000,000 USD

   • Purpose: Focus on companies of similar size to AgEagle Aerial Systems (UAVS), which is a small-cap/micro-cap stock.
   • Rationale:
     • UAVS is a relatively small company by market value.
     • Limiting the range to $10M–$500M excludes very tiny, illiquid nano-caps as well as large established defense/aerospace giants (e.g., Lockheed Martin, Boeing).
     • This keeps comparisons and peer analysis focused on companies whose risk, growth potential, and volatility profile are more comparable to UAVS.

2. Price: 0.10 – 10 USD

   • Purpose: Capture stocks trading in a similar price range to UAVS.
   • Rationale:
     • UAVS trades at a low absolute price, reflecting its small size and higher-risk profile.
     • Screening for stocks between $0.10 and $10 finds similarly “low-priced” names, which often share trading characteristics like higher volatility, susceptibility to news, and retail investor interest.
     • This avoids pulling in higher-priced, more stable blue chips that would not resemble UAVS’s trading behavior.

3. Industry: Aerospace & Defense

   • Purpose: Restrict results to the same or very closely related industry as AgEagle (drones / aerospace-related systems).
   • Rationale:
     • UAVS operates in the broader aerospace/defense ecosystem (unmanned aerial systems, related tech).
     • Limiting to “Aerospace & Defense” ensures you’re looking at companies with similar end markets, regulatory environments, and macro drivers (defense spending, UAV adoption, etc.).
     • This is critical if you want context on UAVS’s performance or valuation relative to its peers and competitors.

4. Region: United States

   • Purpose: Focus analysis on U.S.-based companies like UAVS.
   • Rationale:
     • UAVS is a U.S.-listed and U.S.-focused company, subject to U.S. regulations, reporting standards, and market dynamics.
     • Restricting to U.S. firms fosters more apples-to-apples comparisons in terms of accounting standards, investor base, and macroeconomic backdrop.
     • It also keeps you within the primary market where UAVS trades and where most comparable peers will be found.

5. Exchange: XNYS, XNAS, XASE (NYSE, NASDAQ, NYSE American)

   • Purpose: Include major U.S. exchanges where UAVS itself trades and where most comparable peers are listed.
   • Rationale:
     • UAVS is listed on a major U.S. exchange rather than OTC/pink sheets.
     • Focusing on NYSE, NASDAQ, and NYSE American excludes many illiquid or less-regulated OTC stocks, improving data quality and comparability.
     • Companies on these exchanges generally meet higher listing standards, which matters for reliable financials and corporate governance comparisons.

Why Results Match:

• The filters collectively aim to surface U.S.-listed, small-cap, low-priced aerospace & defense companies—that is, firms that look structurally similar to AgEagle Aerial Systems (UAVS) in size, price behavior, and industry exposure.
• This lets you:
  • Place UAVS in context among its closest peers for valuation, risk, and growth comparisons.
  • Understand how UAVS’s “current status” (price action, fundamentals, sentiment) compares to similar U.S. aerospace & defense names, rather than to huge defense primes or unrelated sectors.
