NXR is expected to deliver an extremely high earnings growth over the next couple of years of 62.23%, driven by a positive revenue growth of 18.39% and cost-cutting initiatives. Although reduction in cost is not the most sustainable operational activity, the expanding top-line growth, on the other hand, is encouraging. NXR’s impressive outlook on all aspects makes it a worthy company to spend more time to understand. Should you add NXR to your portfolio? Check out its fundamental factors here.

TBC Bank Group PLC (LSE:TBCG)

TBC Bank Group PLC, through its subsidiaries, provides banking, leasing, brokerage, and card processing services to corporate and individual customers in Georgia. Established in 1992, and currently run by Vakhtang Butskhrikidze, the company provides employment to 7,084 people and with the company’s market cap sitting at GBP £889.73M, it falls under the small-cap group.

Extreme optimism for TBCG, as market analysts projected an outstanding earnings growth rate of 13.00% for the stock, supported by a double-digit sales growth of 48.57%. An affirming signal is when net income increase is supported by top-line growth. Since net income isn’t artificially inflated by one-off initiatives such as cost-cutting, we know this profit growth is more likely to be sustainable. We see this bottom-line expansion directly benefiting shareholders, with expected return on equity coming in at a notable 20.59%. TBCG ticks the boxes for robust growth generation on all levels of line items, which makes it an appealing stock to dig into deeper. Want to know more about TBCG?

Aminex PLC, through its subsidiaries, explores for, develops, and produces oil and gas reserves primarily in Tanzania and Europe. The company now has 17 employees and with the company’s market cap sitting at GBP £87.44M, it falls under the small-cap category.

Driven by the exceptional 89.96% sales growth over the next few years, AEX is expected to deliver an excellent earnings growth of 75.95%. Profit growth, coupled with top-line expansion, is a positive indication. This is because net income isn’t artificially inflated by unsustainable activities such as one-off cost-reductions expected in the future. AEX ticks the boxes for high-growth generation on all levels of line items, which makes it an appealing stock to dig into deeper. Want to know more about AEX?
