GROWTH ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

It out-grows 95% of companies worldwide.

Revenue grew 60%/yr over the last 3 years, ahead of 90% of companies worldwide.10/10

Revenue is set to grow 34%/yr over the next 3 years, ahead of most of the market.10/10

The runway holds up: revenue is set to grow 35%/yr over five years.10/10

WATCH

Revenue grew 60%/yr over the last 3 years; forecasts see it cooling to 34%/yr.

WEAKNESSES

The company is loss-making, so its revenue growth is not backed by profit yet.

BOTTOM LINE

Top-Line Rocket

A top-tier grower that is slowing. The one thing to watch: the company is not profitable yet.

MOMENTUM ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

Strong recent results. The stock is outperforming over the past month (+11%) and so far this year (+93%).

WATCH

Average long-term results. Multi-year returns are middling (+820% over three years and -38% over five), roughly average for the market.

It's up 36% over the past year, but 35% below its 52-week high. That is a touch ahead of the market.

Returns sit at the market level over three months (-4%).

WEAKNESSES

None flagged.

BOTTOM LINE

Fresh Momentum

Short-term returns are strong but the long track record is thin. Momentum is building — confirmation from longer horizons would strengthen the case.
