GrowGeneration: Our Marijuana Stock Recommendation
Should you invest in GrowGeneration? Will its stock price improve in the long term? Likely.
GrowGeneration has cash and cash equivalents worth $18 million, which is enough to provide support for its operations and expansion for the next 10 to 12 months. Given their aggressive strategy of expansion by acquisition, GrowGeneration will eventually need additional financing to acquire new companies beyond 2020.
GrowGeneration’s net profit decreased slightly to $1.05 million in the third quarter of 2019 as compared to $1.06 million in the second quarter. However, they reported a net profit margin of 4.82% which ranks them among the top 5 in the home improvement retail industry and 28th in the retail industry in the US.
GrowGeneration’s cash to debt ratio in the third quarter of 2019 was 1.93 which shows that if needed they can manage debt payments for the quarter. Their current ratio of 4.2 during the last quarter of 2019 is the highest in the retail sector.
For these reasons, we think GrowGeneration, at or near its current price of $5.45 a share, is an excellent cannabis stock investment opportunity for 2020—though as earnings increase with sales and expenses reduce then there may be additional opportunities in the future.
