Brief Commentary On Nanosonics Limited’s (ASX:NAN) Fundamentals

Building up an investment case requires looking at a stock holistically. Today I’ve chosen to put the spotlight on Nanosonics Limited (ASX:NAN) due to its excellent fundamentals in more than one area. NAN is a company with impressive financial health as well as a buoyant growth outlook. Below, I’ve touched on some key aspects you should know on a high level. For those interested in digger a bit deeper into my commentary, read the full report on Nanosonics here.

Exceptional growth potential with flawless balance sheet

Bullish market analysts are forecasting fast-growing NAN to deliver an exceptional sales growth rate of 73.3% over the next year. This is expected to flow down into an impressive return on equity of 21.0% over the next couple of years. NAN’s ability to maintain an adequate level of cash to meet upcoming liabilities is a good sign for its financial health. This indicates that NAN has sufficient cash flows and proper cash management in place, which is a key determinant of the company’s health. NAN seems to have put its debt to good use, generating operating cash levels of 9.52x total debt in the most recent year. This is also a good indication as to whether debt is properly covered by the company’s cash flows.
