Growth is a hallmark of all great companies, but the laws of gravity eventually take hold. Those who rode the COVID boom and ensuing tech selloff in 2022 will surely remember that the market’s punishment can be swift and severe when trajectories fall.
Luckily for you, our job at StockStory is to help you avoid short-term fads by pointing you toward high-quality businesses that can generate sustainable long-term growth. That said, here is one growth stock where the best is yet to come and two that could be down big.
Two Growth Stocks to Sell:
fuboTV (FUBO)
One-Year Revenue Growth: +22%
Originally launched as a soccer streaming platform, fuboTV (NYSE:FUBO) is a video streaming service specializing in live sports, news, and entertainment content.
Why Are We Wary of FUBO?
- Annual revenue growth of 21.2% over the last two years was below our standards for the consumer discretionary sector
- Persistent operating margin losses suggest the business manages its expenses poorly
- Cash-burning history makes us doubt the long-term viability of its business model
fuboTV’s stock price of $10.11 implies a valuation ratio of 2,233.4x forward P/E. Read our free research report to see why you should think twice about including FUBO in your portfolio.
Plug Power (PLUG)
One-Year Revenue Growth: +15.2%
Powering forklifts for Walmart’s distribution centers, Plug Power (NASDAQ:PLUG) provides hydrogen fuel cells used to power electric motors.
Why Is PLUG Not Exciting?
- Sales tumbled by 3.9% annually over the last two years, showing market trends are working against it during this cycle
- Cash burn makes us question whether it can achieve sustainable long-term growth
- Depletion of cash reserves could lead to a fundraising event that triggers shareholder dilution
At $3.94 per share, Plug Power trades at 6.9x forward price-to-sales. Check out our free in-depth research report to learn more about why PLUG doesn’t pass our bar.
One Growth Stock to Watch:
Uber (UBER)
One-Year Revenue Growth: +18.3%
Notoriously funded with $7.7 billion from the Softbank Vision Fund, Uber (NYSE:UBER) operates a platform of on-demand services such as ride-hailing, food delivery, and freight.
Why Are We Positive on UBER?
- Monthly Active Platform Consumers are rising, meaning the company can increase revenue without incurring additional customer acquisition costs if it can cross-sell additional products and features
- Incremental sales significantly boosted profitability as its annual earnings per share growth of 60.8% over the last three years outstripped its revenue performance
- Free cash flow margin expanded by 15.3 percentage points over the last few years, providing additional flexibility for investments and share buybacks/dividends
Uber is trading at $70.69 per share, or 12.9x forward EV/EBITDA. Is now the time to initiate a position? See for yourself in our in-depth research report, it’s free.
