Flawless balance sheet with outstanding track record

In the past couple of years, ANO has ramped up its bottom line by over 100%, with its latest earnings level surpassing its average level over the last five years. This illustrates a strong track record, leading to a satisfying return on equity of 49%, which is what investors like to see! ANO's ability to maintain an adequate level of cash to meet upcoming liabilities is a good sign for its financial health. This indicates that ANO has sufficient cash flows and proper cash management in place, which is a key determinant of the company’s health. Investors should not worry about ANO’s debt levels because the company has none! This implies that the company is running its operations purely on off equity funding. which is typically normal for a small-cap company. Investors’ risk associated with debt is virtually non-existent and the company has plenty of headroom to grow debt in the future, should the need arise.
