A clean balance sheet can signal disciplined management and stability. It also means a company can expand and thrive without relying on borrowed capital.
Not all companies with sound capital structures are created equal, and StockStory is here to help you find the best. That said, here are three companies with net cash positions that can leverage their balance sheets to grow.
Airbnb (ABNB)
Net Cash Position: $9.47 billion (11.4% of Market Cap)
Founded by Brian Chesky and Joe Gebbia in their San Francisco apartment, Airbnb (NASDAQ: ABNB) is the world’s largest online marketplace for lodging, primarily homestays.
Why Do We Love ABNB?
- Nights and Experiences Booked have grown by 9.1% annually, allowing for more profitable cross-selling opportunities if it can build complementary products and features
- Disciplined cost controls and effective management resulted in a strong two-year EBITDA margin of 35.3%, and its profits increased over the last few years as it scaled
- Strong free cash flow margin of 37.2% enables it to reinvest or return capital consistently
Airbnb’s stock price of $140.33 implies a valuation ratio of 15.5x forward EV/EBITDA. Is now the time to initiate a position? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.
MYR Group (MYRG)
Net Cash Position: $140.3 million (2.2% of Market Cap)
Constructing electrical and phone lines in the American Midwest dating back to the 1890s, MYR Group (NASDAQ: MYRG) is a specialty contractor in the electrical construction industry.
Why Should MYRG Be on Your Watchlist?
- Demand will likely accelerate over the next 12 months as its forecasted revenue growth of 12.4% is above its two-year trend
- Share buybacks catapulted its annual earnings per share growth to 32.6%, which outperformed its revenue gains over the last two years
- Free cash flow margin expanded by 4.5 percentage points over the last five years, providing additional flexibility for investments and share buybacks/dividends
At $408.78 per share, MYR Group trades at 34.2x forward P/E. Is now the right time to buy? See for yourself in our in-depth research report, it’s free.
ResMed (RMD)
Net Cash Position: $967.2 million (3.5% of Market Cap)
Founded in 1989 to address the then-underdiagnosed condition of sleep apnea, ResMed (NYSE: RMD) develops cloud-connected medical devices and software solutions that treat sleep apnea, COPD, and other respiratory disorders for home and clinical use.
Why Does RMD Stand Out?
- Steady constant currency growth over the past two years shows the company can pursue its global ambitions, even in uncertain economic times
- Incremental sales significantly boosted profitability as its annual earnings per share growth of 15.2% over the last five years outstripped its revenue performance
- Free cash flow margin expanded by 21.4 percentage points over the last five years, providing additional flexibility for investments and share buybacks/dividends
ResMed is trading at $193.50 per share, or 16.5x forward P/E. Is now a good time to buy? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.
