Cash-generating companies often have the flexibility to invest, return capital to shareholders, or navigate downturns. The best of these businesses not only accumulate cash but deploy it strategically for growth.

Identifying the most effective companies isn’t easy, and that’s why we started StockStory. Keeping that in mind, here are three cash-producing companies that leverage their financial strength to beat the competition.

Allison Transmission (ALSN)

Trailing 12-Month Free Cash Flow Margin: 20.4%

Helping build race cars at one point, Allison Transmission (NYSE: ALSN) offers transmissions to original equipment manufacturers and fleet operators.

Why Do We Like ALSN?

Offerings are mission-critical for businesses and lead to a best-in-class gross margin of 47.9%
Disciplined cost controls and effective management resulted in a strong long-term operating margin of 29.3%, and its profits increased over the last five years as it scaled
Impressive free cash flow profitability enables the company to fund new investments or reward investors with share buybacks/dividends

Trailing 12-Month Free Cash Flow Margin: 16.8%

Revolutionizing diabetes care with its tubeless "Pod" technology, Insulet (NASDAQ: PODD) develops and manufactures innovative insulin delivery systems for people with diabetes, primarily through its Omnipod product line.

Formerly known as Apollo Medical Holdings until early 2024, Astrana Health (NASDAQ: ASTH) operates a technology-powered healthcare platform that enables physicians to deliver coordinated care while successfully participating in value-based payment models.

Why Does ASTH Stand Out?

Annual revenue growth of 36.6% over the past two years was outstanding, reflecting market share gains this cycle
Projected revenue growth of 59.1% for the next 12 months is above its two-year trend, pointing to accelerating demand
Earnings growth has massively outpaced its peers over the last five years as its EPS has compounded at 19.6% annually
