GSX Techedu Inc. (NYSE:GSX) is a stock with outstanding fundamental characteristics. When we build an investment case, we need to look at the stock with a holistic perspective. In the case of GSX, it is a company with strong financial health as well as a buoyant future outlook. Below is a brief commentary on these key aspects. If you're interested in understanding beyond my broad commentary, read the full report on GSX Techedu here.

Flawless balance sheet with exceptional growth potential

GSX is an attractive stock for growth-seeking investors, with an expected earnings growth of 66% in the upcoming year. This growth in the bottom-line is bolstered by an equally impressive top-line expansion over the same period, which is a sustainable driver of high-quality earnings, as opposed to pure cost-cutting activities. GSX'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 suggests prudent control over cash and cost by management, which is a crucial insight into the health of the company. GSX currently has no debt on its balance sheet. It has only utilized funding from its equity capital to run the business, which is rather impressive for a US$3.1b market cap company. Therefore the company has plenty of headroom to grow, and the ability to raise debt should it need to in the future.
