Excellent balance sheet with high growth potential

Investors in search for stocks with room to flourish should look no further than HSON, with its earnings expected to more than double over the next year. The optimistic bottom-line growth is supported by an outstanding revenue growth of 67% over the same time period, which indicates that earnings is driven by top-line activity rather than purely unsustainable cost-reduction initiatives. HSON's strong financial health means that all of its upcoming liability payments are able to be met by its current cash and short-term investment holdings. This indicates that HSON has sufficient cash flows and proper cash management in place, which is an important determinant of the company’s health. Looking at HSON's capital structure, the company has no debt on its balance sheet. It has only utilized funding from its equity capital to run the business, which is typically normal for a small-cap company. Investors’ risk associated with debt is virtually non-existent and the company has plenty of headroom to grow debt in the future, should the need arise.
