3 Cash-Producing Stocks Worth Your Attention

Businesses with strong free cash flow tend to be more adaptable and resilient. Some of these companies shine bright by using their cash wisely to strengthen their market positions.

Even among businesses with healthy cash flow, only a select few maximize its potential, and we’re here to pinpoint them. That said, here are three cash-producing companies that leverage their financial strength to beat the competition.

Sea (SE)

Trailing 12-Month Free Cash Flow Margin: 20.7%

Founded in 2009 and a publicly traded company since 2017, Sea (NYSE:SE) started as a gaming platform and has since expanded to offer a variety of services such as e-commerce, digital payments, and financial services across Southeast Asia.

Why Do We Love SE?

1. Has the opportunity to boost monetization through new features and premium offerings as its paying users have grown by 22.7% annually over the last two years
2. Strong engagement trends coupled with 12.6% annual growth in its average revenue per user demonstrate its platform’s stickiness with die-hard customers
3. Free cash flow margin expanded by 18.4 percentage points over the last few years, providing additional flexibility for investments and share buybacks/dividends

Sea’s stock price of $90.45 implies a valuation ratio of 4x forward price-to-gross profit. Is now the time to initiate a position? See for yourself in our in-depth research report, it’s free.

OSI Systems (OSIS)

Trailing 12-Month Free Cash Flow Margin: 3.7%

With security scanners deployed at airports and borders worldwide and patient monitors used in hospitals across the globe, OSI Systems (NASDAQ:OSIS) designs and manufactures specialized electronic systems for security screening, patient monitoring, and optoelectronic applications.

Why Are We Backing OSIS?

1. Annual revenue growth of 10.9% over the past two years was outstanding, reflecting market share gains this cycle
2. Performance over the past five years was turbocharged by share buybacks, which enabled its earnings per share to grow faster than its revenue
3. Returns on capital are growing as management capitalizes on its market opportunities

At $216.68 per share, OSI Systems trades at 20x forward P/E. Is now a good time to buy? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.

Pfizer (PFE)

Trailing 12-Month Free Cash Flow Margin: 15%

With roots dating back to 1849 when two German immigrants opened a fine chemicals business in Brooklyn, Pfizer (NYSE:PFE) is a global biopharmaceutical company that discovers, develops, manufactures, and sells medicines and vaccines for a wide range of diseases and conditions.

Why Does PFE Stand Out?

1. Dominant market position is represented by its $63.32 billion in revenue, which creates significant barriers to entry in this highly regulated industry
2. Adjusted operating profits increased over the last two years as the company gained some leverage on its fixed costs and became more efficient
3. Industry-leading 18.1% return on capital demonstrates management’s skill in finding high-return investments

Pfizer is trading at $26.15 per share, or 9.2x forward P/E. Is now the right time to buy? See for yourself in our full research report, it’s free.
