The Nasdaq 100 (^NDX) is where investors find some of the most innovative and disruptive companies shaping the future. A select few continue to execute at a high level, growing their market dominance and delivering strong returns.
Even among industry leaders, some companies shine bright, and we built StockStory to help you find them. Keeping that in mind, here are three Nasdaq 100 stocks that have huge potential.
Meta (META)
Market Cap: $1.58 trillion
Famously founded by Mark Zuckerberg in his Harvard dorm, Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: META) operates a collection of the largest social networks in the world - Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and Messenger, along with its metaverse focused Reality Labs.
Why Are We Backing META?
- Monetization efforts are paying off as its average revenue per user has grown by 29.9% annually over the last two years
- Share repurchases have amplified shareholder returns as its annual earnings per share growth of 51.3% exceeded its revenue gains over the last three years
- Robust free cash flow margin of 26.2% gives it many options for capital deployment, and its recently improved profitability means it has even more resources to invest or distribute
Meta is trading at $622.81 per share, or 11.4x forward EV/EBITDA. Is now the time to initiate a position? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.
Electronic Arts (EA)
Market Cap: $50.08 billion
Best known for its Madden NFL and FIFA sports franchises, Electronic Arts (NASDAQ: EA) is one of the world’s largest video game publishers.
Why Is EA on Our Radar?
- Marketing spend is minimal, showing it doesn’t need advertisements to acquire new users because of its well-known brand
- Highly efficient business model is illustrated by its impressive 35.3% EBITDA margin
- Strong free cash flow margin of 27.6% enables it to reinvest or return capital consistently, and its growing cash flow gives it even more resources to deploy
Electronic Arts’s stock price of $200.38 implies a valuation ratio of 16.4x forward EV/EBITDA. Is now the right time to buy? See for yourself in our comprehensive research report, it’s free.
Booking (BKNG)
Market Cap: $140.7 billion
Formerly known as The Priceline Group, Booking Holdings (NASDAQ: BKNG) is the world’s largest online travel agency.
Why Does BKNG Stand Out?
- Superior platform functionality and low servicing costs are reflected in its best-in-class gross margin of 86.7%
- Performance over the past three years was turbocharged by share buybacks, which enabled its earnings per share to grow faster than its revenue
- BKNG is a free cash flow machine with the flexibility to invest in growth initiatives or return capital to shareholders
At $4,435 per share, Booking trades at 12.5x forward EV/EBITDA. Is now a good time to buy? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.
