Highlights

How we pick these

Strengths

  • Growth speeding up. The growth rate is 3.6 points higher than a quarter earlier.
  • Shrinking share count. Diluted shares fell 12.4% in a year, so each share owns more of the business.

Things to watch

  • Volatile shares. Over the past year the shares showed annualised volatility of 45% and a beta of 0.5 against the S&P 500.
  • Gross margin slipping. Gross margin is down 7.1 points on a year ago.
  • Heavily shorted. 25.5% of the shares available to trade are sold short (4.2 days of average volume to cover).
