As the ASX200 shows signs of resilience, closing up by about half a percent ahead of the King’s birthday public holiday, investors are keenly observing market movements and sector performances. In this context, growth companies with high insider ownership on the ASX offer a unique appeal, as these insiders often have a vested interest in the company's success which can align closely with shareholder interests during varying economic climates.
Top 10 Growth Companies With High Insider Ownership In Australia
Overview: Aussie Broadband Limited operates as a telecommunications service provider catering to both residential and business customers across Australia, with a market capitalization of approximately A$1.04 billion.
Operations: The company generates revenue through three primary segments: A$549.59 million from residential services, A$125.25 million from wholesale operations, and A$85.85 million from enterprise and government clients.
Insider Ownership: 10.8%
Earnings Growth Forecast: 26.5% p.a.
Aussie Broadband, actively pursuing growth through acquisitions, recently targeted a significant purchase funded by a A$120 million equity raise. Despite insider trading showing more purchases than sales recently, shareholder dilution has occurred over the past year. The company's earnings are expected to grow significantly at 26.5% annually, outpacing the Australian market's 13.9%. However, its revenue growth at 13% per year lags behind the desired 20% threshold for high-growth entities.
Overview: Cettire Limited operates as an online retailer of luxury goods in Australia, the United States, and other international markets, with a market capitalization of approximately A$964.62 million.
Operations: The company generates its revenue primarily from online retail sales, which amounted to A$582.79 million.
Insider Ownership: 28.7%
Earnings Growth Forecast: 29.9% p.a.
Cettire, recently presenting at the Bell Potter Emerging Leaders Conference, shows promising financial trends despite some concerns. The company became profitable this year and trades at a substantial discount to its estimated fair value. Expected to significantly outperform the Australian market, Cettire's earnings and revenue growth forecasts are very high, with earnings projected to increase by 29.91% annually and revenue by 24% annually. However, shareholder dilution occurred over the past year, raising some investor concerns about equity value erosion.
Overview: Technology One Limited is a company that focuses on developing, marketing, selling, implementing, and supporting integrated enterprise business software solutions both in Australia and internationally, with a market capitalization of A$5.94 billion.
Operations: The company generates revenue through three primary segments: software sales contributing A$317.24 million, corporate services at A$83.83 million, and consulting services totaling A$68.13 million.
Insider Ownership: 12.3%
Earnings Growth Forecast: 14.3% p.a.
Technology One, an Australian software company, exhibits a balanced growth profile with a Price-To-Earnings ratio below the industry average. While its earnings and revenue are forecasted to grow at 14.3% and 11.1% per year respectively—outpacing the Australian market—the growth rates do not reach the high threshold of 20% annually considered significant. However, Technology One has demonstrated solid past performance with earnings up by 13.1% last year and maintains a strong future outlook with a projected Return on Equity of 32.6%.
