3 Growth Stocks to Stash

TEAM Cover Image

Growth is oxygen. But when it evaporates, the consequences can be severe - ask anyone who bought Cisco in the Dot-Com Bubble or newer investors who lived through the 2020 to 2022 COVID cycle.

Deciphering which businesses can sustain their high growth rates is a challenge for even the most seasoned professionals, which is why we started StockStory. That said, here are three growth stocks with significant upside potential.

Atlassian (TEAM)

One-Year Revenue Growth: +19.7%

Started by two Australian university friends who funded their startup with credit cards, Atlassian (NASDAQ: TEAM) provides software tools that help teams plan, track, collaborate, and share knowledge across organizations.

Why Are We Fans of TEAM?

  1. Annual revenue growth of 21.5% over the last two years was superb and indicates its market share is rising
  2. Prominent and differentiated software culminates in a premier gross margin of 82.8%
  3. Fast payback periods on sales and marketing expenses allow the company to invest heavily and onboard many customers concurrently

Atlassian’s stock price of $144.60 implies a valuation ratio of 6.2x forward price-to-sales. Is now the time to initiate a position? Find out in our full research report, it’s free for active Edge members.

Lyft (LYFT)

One-Year Revenue Growth: +19.9%

Founded by Logan Green and John Zimmer as a long-distance intercity carpooling company Zimride, Lyft (NASDAQ: LYFT) operates a ridesharing network in the US and Canada.

Why Could LYFT Be a Winner?

  1. Active Riders are rising, meaning the company can increase revenue without incurring additional customer acquisition costs if it can cross-sell additional products and features
  2. Additional sales over the last three years increased its profitability as the 39.2% annual growth in its earnings per share outpaced its revenue
  3. Free cash flow margin grew by 23.7 percentage points over the last few years, giving the company more chips to play with

Lyft is trading at $19.11 per share, or 14x forward EV/EBITDA. Is now the right time to buy? See for yourself in our in-depth research report, it’s free for active Edge members.

Wingstop (WING)

One-Year Revenue Growth: +22.7%

The passion project of two chicken wing aficionados in Texas, Wingstop (NASDAQ: WING) is a popular fast-food chain known for its flavorful and crispy chicken wings offered in a variety of sauces and seasonings.

Why Do We Love WING?

  1. Rapid rollout of new restaurants to capitalize on market opportunities makes sense given its strong same-store sales performance
  2. Average same-store sales growth of 14.6% over the past two years indicates its restaurants are resonating with diners
  3. Highly efficient business model is illustrated by its impressive 25.5% operating margin

At $243.79 per share, Wingstop trades at 54.1x forward P/E. Is now a good time to buy? Find out in our full research report, it’s free for active Edge members.
