Shopify 

Shopify (TSX:SHOP) is a must-have stock to capitalize on the digital transformation. The ongoing shift in selling models towards omnichannel platforms and the increased number of consumers opting for the convenience of online shopping presents significant growth opportunities for this leading e-commerce platform provider.  

Despite the strong recovery in its price throughout the year, Shopify stock is still below its peak, suggesting potential for an upward trajectory as macroeconomic challenges ease and consumer spending rises. Besides, the company’s durable revenue growth rate, focus on streamlining its business and reducing costs, and improving performance on the profitability front provide a solid foundation for future growth. 

For instance, Shopify’s top line increased 25% year over year in the third quarter (Q3). Meanwhile, it delivered positive free cash flows for four consecutive quarters. In essence, the company’s focus on driving the adoption of innovative products like Payments and Capital, expanding sales and marketing channels, improving attach rates, and prioritizing sustainable earnings positions Shopify favourably for delivering substantial returns over the next decade.

goeasy

The company’s impressive financial performance is evident in its stock’s outperformance.

This subprime lender has grown its top line at a CAGR of 19.6% (as of September 30, 2023) in the past five years. At the same time, its earnings boasted a CAGR of 31.9% during the same period.

The company’s growing loan portfolio, leading position in the subprime lending market, diversified product base, and omnichannel offerings will continue to drive its financials. Meanwhile, its solid credit and payment performance, high-quality assets, and improving operating leverage will fuel its earnings growth and support higher dividend payouts.

Shares of the digital healthcare company WELL Health Technologies (TSX:WELL) could be a solid addition to your portfolio near the current levels. Despite macro headwinds and challenges from the reopening of the economy, WELL Health continues to perform well and is delivering record revenue.

WELL Health is strategically expanding its market presence by pursuing accretive acquisitions. Additionally, its focus on achieving profitable growth is a favourable factor. WELL Health is poised to benefit from omnichannel patient visits.

Looking into the future, WELL Health anticipates generating approximately $1 billion in annual sales within the next two years, signaling a positive outlook.
