Want to add more growth to your portfolio but not sure where to look? Companies such as Paragon Care and Magellan Financial Group are deemed high-growth by the market, with a positive outlook in all areas – returns, profitability and cash flows. I would suggest taking a look at my list of companies that compare favourably in all criteria, and consider whether they would add value to your current portfolio.
Paragon Care Limited (ASX:PGC)
Paragon Care Limited supplies durable medical equipment, medical devices, and consumable medical products to the acute, aged, primary, community, and hospital care markets in Australia and New Zealand. Paragon Care is currently led by CEO Andrew Just. It currently has a market cap of AUD A$219.80M placing it in the small-cap group
PGC’s forecasted bottom line growth is an optimistic 29.92%, driven by the underlying 94.05% sales growth over the next few years. An affirming signal is when net income increase is supported by top-line growth. Since net income isn’t artificially inflated by one-off initiatives such as cost-cutting, we know this profit growth is more likely to be sustainable. We see this bottom-line expansion directly benefiting shareholders, with expected positive return on equity of 13.75%. PGC’s impressive outlook on all aspects makes it a worthy company to spend more time to understand. Thinking of investing in PGC? I recommend researching its fundamentals here.
Magellan Financial Group (ASX:MFG)
Magellan Financial Group is a publicly owned investment manager. Established in 2004, and currently run by Hamish Douglass, the company size now stands at 104 people and with the market cap of AUD A$4.07B, it falls under the mid-cap stocks category.
Extreme optimism for MFG, as market analysts projected an outstanding earnings growth rate of 26.06% for the stock, supported by a double-digit sales growth of 27.00%. Profit growth, coupled with top-line expansion, is a positive indication. This is because net income isn’t artificially inflated by unsustainable activities such as one-off cost-reductions expected in the future. This prospective profitability should trickle down to shareholders, with analysts expecting the company to generate a high double-digit return on equity of 46.97%. MFG’s bullish prospects on both the top and bottom lines make it an interesting stock to invest more time to understand how it can add value to your portfolio. Want to know more about MFG?
