Orocobre Limited (ASX:ORE) is a company with exceptional fundamental characteristics. Upon building up an investment case for a stock, we should look at various aspects. In the case of ORE, it 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, take a look at the report on Orocobre here.

High growth potential with adequate balance sheet

ORE is an attractive stock for growth-seeking investors, with an expected earnings growth of 31% in the upcoming year. This growth in the bottom-line is bolstered by an impressive top-line expansion of 65% over the same period, which is a sustainable driver of high-quality earnings, as opposed to pure cost-cutting activities. ORE’s ability to maintain an adequate level of cash to meet upcoming liabilities is a good sign for its financial health. This implies that ORE manages its cash and cost levels well, which is a crucial insight into the health of the company. Looking at ORE’s capital structure, the company has very trivial amounts of debt on its balance sheet. ORE has plenty of financial flexibility, without debt obligations to meet in the short term, as well as the headroom to raise debt should it need to in the future.
