Forget Profit, Bet on 4 Stocks with Increasing Cash Flows
Crunching profit numbers and evaluating surprises might be the preferred methods for scooping up big gains in the impending first-quarter earnings season. However, looking beyond profits and assessing a company’s cash position can be far more rewarding because these indicate its true financial health.
In this regard, stocks like BrightSpring Health Services, Inc., Aura Minerals Inc., Constellium SE and Cimpress plc emerge as compelling picks, supported by improving cash flow trends.
This is because although profit is a company’s goal, cash is the lifeblood of its existence, development and success, and indeed a measure of its resilience. Even a profitable business can fail if its cash flow is uneven and eventually file for bankruptcy. Nevertheless, a company with a healthy cash position has the capability to effectively tide over any market mayhem and still be on its growth curve, alongside enjoying the flexibility to make decisions, chase potential investments and run its growth engine.
With uncertainties in the global economy, market disruptions and dislocations, as well as liquidity concerns resulting from geopolitical tensions, analyzing a company’s cash-generating efficiency holds more relevance in the current context.
To figure out this efficiency, one needs to consider a company’s net cash flow. While in any business, cash moves in and out, it is net cash flow that explains how much money a company is actually generating.
If a company is experiencing a positive cash flow, it denotes an increase in its liquid assets, which gives it the means to meet debt obligations, shell out for expenses, reinvest in the business, endure downturns and finally return wealth to shareholders. On the other hand, a negative cash flow indicates a decline in the company’s liquidity, which in turn lowers its flexibility to support these moves.
However, having a positive cash flow merely does not secure a company’s future growth. To ride on the growth curve, a company must have its cash flow increasing because that indicates management’s efficiency in regulating its cash movements and less dependency on outside financing for running its business.
Therefore, keep yourself abreast with the following screen to bet on stocks with rising cash flows.
Here are four out of seven stocks that qualified the screening:
