1 Stock Under $50 to Target This Week and 2 We Ignore

IOT Cover Image

The $10-50 price range often includes mid-sized businesses with proven track records and plenty of growth runway ahead. They also usually carry less risk than penny stocks, though they’re not immune to volatility as many lack the scale advantages of their larger peers.

This is precisely where StockStory comes in - we do the heavy lifting to identify companies with solid fundamentals so you can invest with confidence. Keeping that in mind, here is one stock under $50 with huge potential and two best left ignored.

Two Stocks Under $50 to Sell:

Lovesac (LOVE)

Share Price: $18.47

Known for its oversized, premium beanbags, Lovesac (NASDAQ: LOVE) is a specialty furniture brand selling modular furniture.

Why Does LOVE Give Us Pause?

  1. Lackluster 1.7% annual revenue growth over the last two years indicates the company is losing ground to competitors
  2. Low free cash flow margin of 1% for the last two years gives it little breathing room, constraining its ability to self-fund growth or return capital to shareholders
  3. Waning returns on capital imply its previous profit engines are losing steam

Lovesac is trading at $18.47 per share, or 5.3x forward EV-to-EBITDA. Dive into our free research report to see why there are better opportunities than LOVE.

Newmark (NMRK)

Share Price: $18.63

Founded in 1929, Newmark (NASDAQ: NMRK) provides commercial real estate services, including leasing advisory, global corporate services, investment sales and capital markets, property and facilities management, valuation and advisory, and consulting.

Why Do We Avoid NMRK?

  1. 7.4% annual revenue growth over the last five years was slower than its consumer discretionary peers
  2. Lacking free cash flow generation means it has few chances to reinvest for growth, repurchase shares, or distribute capital
  3. Underwhelming 2.7% return on capital reflects management’s difficulties in finding profitable growth opportunities

At $18.63 per share, Newmark trades at 11.8x forward P/E. To fully understand why you should be careful with NMRK, check out our full research report (it’s free).

One Stock Under $50 to Buy:

Samsara (IOT)

Share Price: $34.50

From sensors on vehicles to AI-powered cameras that help prevent accidents, Samsara (NYSE: IOT) is a cloud-based Internet of Things platform that helps businesses improve the safety, efficiency, and sustainability of their physical operations.

Why Are We Bullish on IOT?

  1. Customers view its software as mission-critical to their operations as its ARR has averaged 33.3% growth over the last year
  2. Expected revenue growth of 22.1% for the next year suggests its market share will rise
  3. Operating margin improvement of 19.2 percentage points over the last year demonstrates its ability to scale efficiently

Samsara’s stock price of $34.50 implies a valuation ratio of 12x forward price-to-sales. Is now a good time to buy? See for yourself in our full research report, it’s free.
