Why Stock Price Does Matter for Cheap Stocks

Those of you in the community know I’m a
fundamentals investor, looking at that long-term upside in stocks through a
company’s financials. It’s the work I did over a decade as an analyst and I
truly believe that’s how you make the best returns on your money.

…but that doesn’t mean I’m not ready to make a
quick profit when I see the opportunity. Trading in an undervalued name with
that near-term upside. And there’s no better place to do that than in penny stocks
under $10 a share.

Now at its core, there’s nothing special about
a company with a stock price under a certain amount. That price is just the
market cap of the company and the number of shares issued in the market.

Stock price shouldn’t matter!

But in reality, it does. Because most investing sites don’t allow fractional shares, meaning you need to invest at least enough to buy a whole share, that means there are just more investors to buy shares of cheaper stocks.

There are many more investors that can put
down a hundred bucks to buy a dozen shares of a stock under $10 versus the
number of investors that can afford to buy a single share of Amazon for over
$2,000 each.

There’s also the impression that these low-price stocks are inexpensive. It’s just a visual reaction to a lower number I realize but it does mean stronger investor sentiment and that goes a long way for short-term investing.

I started by screening on Morningstar for
small cap stocks with a market cap under $1.5 billion and a price around $10 or
lower. You can adjust these a little if you like, maybe looking for even
smaller companies or stocks under $5 a share. I like narrowing this to small
cap, penny stocks because that’s where the biggest opportunities lie.

These smaller companies just aren’t covered as
much by Wall Street analysts. While shares of Apple might have 30-plus analysts
pouring over its financials, there might only be a couple people looking at
these smaller companies. That means more opportunity to find undiscovered
winners.

I also narrowed my list to companies with increasing revenue and income as well as a healthy balance sheet. So here you can filter for sales and income in the last twelve months that are higher than the year before and maybe a debt-to-equity ratio that’s lower than the industry average.

One of the biggest risks with penny stocks is the volatility in finances, that lack of financial flexibility compared to a trillion-dollar Apple or Amazon. So you definitely want to pay attention to make sure the company has a strong income statement and solid assets.

5 Cheap Stocks to Buy Now

Our first stock under $10 is Zynex, ticker
ZYXI, a $259 million medical device manufacturer. Now this company has been
around for 23 years but just graduated to listing on the Nasdaq this year which
is a big boost to credibility and investor sentiment. Shares are up over 220%
so far this year but could have a lot further to go.

Zynex earns most of its revenue from a
non-invasive electrotherapy pain management device. That’s about 90% of sales
with 60% of it recurring on monthly supplies. I love that recurring chunk of
revenue and the company is developing a blood volume monitor and growing into
the EEG diagnostics space as well.

Zynex has booked 12 consecutive profitable
quarters and orders were up 65% in the first half of 2019. It paid out a
special dividend in the fourth quarter last year which is extremely rare for a
small cap stock to pay out a dividend but the company has $10 million in
balance sheet cash and no long-term debt so an excellent financial position.

Next up is PaySign, a $500 million
vertically-integrated provider of prepaid cards and payment processing services.

Now I really like the payment processing space
and PaySign has a lot going for it with its own card. It’s growing in
pharmaceutical payments and preparing to launch a PaySign Premier Card.

The company reports over 2.5 million
cardholders and is growing revenue at a 54% annual rate. Even more impressive
though is that it’s booked 100% client retention for eight years running.

This is another one with a stellar balance
sheet, $6.3 million in cash and no debt, for that ultimate financial flexibility.
Shares are up by 205% this year and even though this one just crossed into that
$10 a share mark, I had to include it.

My third pick for best picks under $10 a share
is Farmland Partners, ticker FPI, the largest US public farmland REIT.

FPI holds over $1.1 billion in assets across
North America with 162,000 acres in 17 states. Properties are managed by 125
farmers growing over 30 major commercial crops.

An old Iowa boy, I’ve always loved farmland as
an amazing investment and this one has some big long-term potential as well as
a near-term catalyst.

First is just the trend to increasing food
demand and land scarcity. A growing global middle class is eating more meat
which means less land is being devoted to other crops. On top of this long-term
trend, you’ve got a near-term catalyst in China’s return to buying US ag
products.

This is a solid diversifier for your
portfolio. Not only do you get a real estate investment trust with a nice 2.9%
dividend but farmland returns have historically beaten the market. Over nearly
five decades to 2018, farmland has returned a 10% annualized gain versus just
6.8% for the S&P 500 and a 9% return for all REITs.

Next here we have Green Brick Partners, ticker
GRBK, a home builder with land development kicker focused in the Atlanta,
Dallas and Denver markets.

I like the idea of combining that homebuilder
model with owning and developing the land as well because it delivers more
control over the projects and solid profits. Green Brick continuously
outperforms other small- and mid-cap peers in the space with a 10.2% pre-tax
income margin versus an average of just 5.7% for other small-cap companies.

This one also has a stronger balance sheet
versus other builders with just 29% debt-to-capital versus an average of 43%
for the 15 companies in the space. Green Brick just passed that $10 per share
level with a 35% increase so far this year but low interest rates should mean
strong home-buying and profits to come.

Ryerson Holding, ticker RYI, is a $376 million
leader in processing and distribution of industrial metals founded in 1842.

Ryerson has grown its market share in
industrial metals from 3.8% in 2014 to a target of 6% in the US market. It’s
also improved the gross margin, that’s profitability on sales after paying
suppliers, by almost 5% since 2007. These are some really strong performance
measures for a 177-year old company, the fact that it can continue to compete
and improve profitability.

The company is continuously profitable even as the broader industrial climate weakens and has produced a 42% return already this year.
