3 Profitable Stocks to Buy on Net Income Ratios
Investors always look for companies that offer sturdy returns even after meeting all operating and non-operating costs. After all, they at all times seek a profitable company over a loss-making one. Here, we have used the concept of accounting ratios to evaluate a company's profitability. There are a variety of profitability ratios, from which we have chosen the most successful and frequently used profitability metric to determine the bottom-line performance of a company.
To that end, AMN Healthcare Services, Encore Wire and Global Ship Lease have been selected as the top picks with a high net income ratio.
Net Income Ratio
Net income ratio gives us the exact profitability level of a company. It reflects the percentage of net income to total sales revenues. Using net income ratio, one can determine a company's effectiveness to meet operating and non-operating expenses from revenues. A higher net income ratio usually implies a company's ability to generate ample revenues and successfully manage all business functions.
Here are three of the 17 stocks that qualified the screening:
AMN Healthcare Services is a travel healthcare staffing company. It recruits and places nurses, physicians, and other healthcare professionals in travel or permanent assignments in acute-care facilities, physician practice groups, and other healthcare facilities. The 12-month net profit margin of AMN is 8.8%.
Encore Wire is a low-cost manufacturer of copper electrical building wire and cable. The 12-month net profit margin of WIRE is 23.2%.
Global Ship Lease is a rapidly growing containership charter owner. The 12-month net profit margin of GSL is nearly 43.9%.
