Exceptional growth potential with excellent balance sheet

Investors in search for stocks with room to flourish should look no further than CDMO, with its expected earnings growth of 81%. The optimistic bottom-line growth is supported by an outstanding revenue growth of 75% over the same time period, which indicates that earnings is driven by top-line activity rather than purely unsustainable cost-reduction initiatives. CDMO is financially robust, with ample cash on hand and short-term investments to meet upcoming liabilities. This indicates that CDMO has sufficient cash flows and proper cash management in place, which is a crucial insight into the health of the company. CDMO currently has no debt on its balance sheet. It has only utilized funding from its equity capital to run the business, which is typically normal for a small-cap company. Therefore the company has plenty of headroom to grow, and the ability to raise debt should it need to in the future.
