"Again from a value perspective, do you ignore the substainability and buy based on past performance or consider the future in finding value?"

In less volatile times, I presume that the stock price of a company will reflect the consensus of what people believe the company's future to be. If the consensus' concern about sustainability is significant enough to where the stock price is already very low in anticipation of this (i.e. the future's already baked into the stock price), then based on past performance, some hope that maybe people are overly negative, and that things might improve in 1-2 years, from a value perspective I might be interested in making a buy.
