NVIDIA & 2 Other Profitable Stocks to Buy in February
February has traditionally been a less-than-bullish month for stocks. However, things have improved since the 1990s, with stocks ending in the green more frequently in February.
Thus, investors can benefit from the possible upward trajectory by focusing on profitable stocks over unprofitable ones and using fundamental accounting ratios as the key indicators of performance. We have selected the most successful and commonly used profitability ratio to evaluate a company’s performance.
To that end, NVIDIA Corp., AppLovin Corp. and Insulet Corp. have been selected as the top picks with a high net income ratio.
Net Income Ratio
The net income ratio shows a company’s profitability level. It reflects the percentage of net income to total sales revenues. Using the net income ratio, one can determine a firm’s effectiveness in meeting 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 32 stocks that qualified for the screening:
NVIDIA
NVIDIA Corporation leads in visual computing technologies and invented the graphic processing unit or GPU. The 12-month net profit margin of NVDA is 55.7%.
AppLovin creates a software platform for advertisers to boost marketing and monetization of their content globally. The 12-month net profit margin of APP is 26.9%.
The company’s expected earnings growth rate for the current year is 317.4%. AppLovin currently has a Zacks Rank #1.
Insulet
Insulet is a leading developer, manufacturer and marketer of the Omnipod Insulin Management System. The 12-month net profit margin of PODD is 21.2%.
The company’s expected earnings growth rate for the current year is 17.1%. Insulet currently has a Zacks Rank #2.
