Hitting a new 52-week low can be a pivotal moment for any stock. These floors often mark either the beginning of a turnaround story or confirmation that a company faces serious headwinds.
While market timing can be an extremely profitable strategy, it has burned many investors and requires rigorous analysis - something we specialize in at StockStory. Keeping that in mind, here is one stock poised to prove the bears wrong and two facing legitimate challenges.
Two Stocks to Sell:
Box (BOX)
One-Month Return: -13.9%
Known as the "Content Cloud" for managing the 90% of business data that exists as unstructured files and documents, Box (NYSE: BOX) provides a cloud-based platform that enables organizations to securely manage, share, and collaborate on their content from anywhere on any device.
Why Does BOX Worry Us?
- Products, pricing, or go-to-market strategy may need some adjustments as its 11.9% average billings growth over the last year was weak
- Projected sales growth of 7.7% for the next 12 months suggests sluggish demand
- Expenses have increased as a percentage of revenue over the last year as its operating margin fell by 1.6 percentage points
At $24.58 per share, Box trades at 2.9x forward price-to-sales. To fully understand why you should be careful with BOX, check out our full research report (it’s free).
GoodRx (GDRX)
One-Month Return: -21.4%
Started in 2011 to tackle the problem of high prescription drug costs in America, GoodRx (NASDAQ: GDRX) operates a digital platform that helps consumers find lower prices on prescription medications through price comparison tools and discount codes.
Why Do We Steer Clear of GDRX?
- Underwhelming customer growth over the past two years shows the company faced challenges in winning new contracts
- Modest revenue base of $800.7 million gives it less fixed cost leverage and fewer distribution channels than larger companies
- Push for growth has led to negative returns on capital, signaling value destruction
GoodRx is trading at $2.23 per share, or 5.4x forward P/E. If you’re considering GDRX for your portfolio, see our FREE research report to learn more.
One Stock to Buy:
Humana (HUM)
One-Month Return: -30.1%
With over 80% of its revenue derived from federal government contracts, Humana (NYSE: HUM) provides health insurance plans and healthcare services to approximately 17 million members, with a strong focus on Medicare Advantage plans for seniors.
Why Are We Backing HUM?
- Solid 12.8% annual revenue growth over the last two years indicates its offering’s solve complex business issues
- Enormous revenue base of $126.3 billion gives it leverage over plan holders and advantageous reimbursement terms with healthcare providers
- ROIC punches in at 34.4%, illustrating management’s expertise in identifying profitable investments
Humana’s stock price of $192.72 implies a valuation ratio of 14.4x forward P/E. Is now a good time to buy? See for yourself in our full research report, it’s free.
