Small-Cap Companies Data 

Small-Cap companies' data aims to reflect companies with low market capitalisation and a track record of historical revenue growth, positive operating cash flow, low debt-to-equity ratio, as well as institutional confidence reflected in terms of ownership by strategic entities.

Various metrics such as last twelve months Debt to Equity Ratio (D/E), 3 Year Historic Average Revenue Growth, Current Market Price above 200 Day SMA, LFY Net Profit Margin, 3 Year Historical Average Operating Cash Flow, are used to filter out these companies. While a lower debt-to-equity ratio signifies the company's balance sheet strength and ability to grow using shareholders' equity, the Historical Average Revenue Growth metric helps identify if a business can expand its horizons in delivering goods and/or services.

When all the above-mentioned metrics are combined, the finest small-cap companies with a track record of historical revenue growth and positive operating cash flow are identified. This data screen of Sivastatz can be considered as a form of Small-Cap companies’ screener to identify potential opportunities in this space.
