Oil prices recently topped $110 as conflict risks in the Middle East disrupted supply expectations and pushed energy costs higher. That kind of spike can pressure many businesses, yet it can also highlight companies that already look financially sound and primed for rapid earnings expansion. This article looks at three Canadian high growth potential stocks from our screener that align with that theme and explains why they may deserve a closer look now.
The three stocks highlighted here offer a compelling starting point if you want exposure to financially healthy high growth potential businesses. However, if you want the pick of this theme, these 17 best high growth potential stocks are the best of the best.
Hemlo Mining (TSX:HMMC)
Hemlo Mining focuses on producing gold from its 100% owned Hemlo mine in Marathon, Ontario. This is the key link to the Healthy high growth potential theme through that single producing asset. The business is valued at about CA$1.57b by the market.
Hemlo Mining sits squarely in this screener theme, with analysts estimating earnings growth of about 43% a year and revenue growth of 25% a year over the next 3 years from its Hemlo gold operation. Interest grows when a miner priced on a rich 70.4x P/E is still flagged as trading far below estimated fair value, especially if a single unseen pressure on that mine’s cost base shifts in the wrong direction.
That kind of pressure point makes it worth scanning the 4 key rewards and 2 important warning signs (1 is major!) to see what might be quietly driving Hemlo Mining’s valuation set up.
Americas Gold and Silver (TSX:USA)
Americas Gold and Silver is a Toronto based precious metals producer in the Healthy high growth potential screener, generating about US$182 million from gold and other precious metals and carrying a roughly CA$1.7b market value.
Americas Gold and Silver fits this theme through its push to grow profitable gold and silver output in the Americas, where higher quality tonnes matter just as much as higher volumes.
"Recent operational upgrades at the Galena Complex, specifically the introduction of long-hole stoping, new underground fleet equipment, and infrastructure improvements like the #3 shaft hoist motor, are expected to substantially improve productivity and lower unit costs, which should increase net margins and expand EBITDA as volumes rise."
The real swing factor is how one concentrated source of future metal production ultimately feeds through to cash generation and return on equity.
If that production source is what really moves the needle for Americas Gold and Silver, the full narrative for Americas Gold and Silver pulls together how execution risk and upside could be decoupling here.
Energy Fuels (TSX:EFR)
Energy Fuels is a US-focused uranium producer and developer that also has rare earth and heavy mineral sands activities. The uranium segment drives the “Healthy high growth potential” angle by generating about $106 million of revenue on its own and supporting a CA$2.9b market value.
Energy Fuels taps directly into the Healthy high growth potential theme through its uranium business, while its rare earth push offers an extra lever that could reshape earnings if the execution lands as planned.
"Completion and commissioning of the White Mesa Mill rare earth separation Phase 2 expansion (potentially increasing monazite processing to 60,000 tonnes/year and enabling commercial-scale heavy rare earth production such as Dy/Tb) could establish Energy Fuels as a major western supplier, capturing price premiums driven by western supply chain security and increasing electrification demand, supporting long-term revenue and margin upside."
What happens to Energy Fuels’ future cash generation depends heavily on how one large funding and execution swing factor ultimately plays out.
That funding hinge makes it worth reading the full narrative for Energy Fuels to see how the rare earth build out could accelerate or constrain Energy Fuels from here.
