Today's Featured Research Reports
Visa’s shares have outperformed the Zacks Financial Transaction Services industry over the past year (+20.3% vs. +15.9%). The company’s strategic acquisitions and alliances are fostering long-term growth and consistently driving revenues. It expects net revenues to grow by low double-digits in fiscal 2025.
Visa is fueled by persistent increases in payments, cross-border volumes and sustained investments in technology, is witnessing significant profit growth. The ongoing shift to digital payments is advantageous for Visa, with strong domestic volumes supporting its overall performance. A robust cash position enables the company to enhance shareholder value.
However, elevated operating expenses pose margin challenges. We expect this metric to rise 7.6% year over year in fiscal 2025. It is witnessing volatile cash volume from the Asia Pacific and U.S. regions. Hence, the stock warrants a cautious stance.

Shares of ServiceNow have outperformed the Zacks Computers - IT Services industry over the past year (+4.7% vs. -5.1%). The company has been benefiting from the rising adoption of its workflows by enterprises undergoing digital transformation.
ServiceNow had 2,109 total customers with more than $1 million in annual contract value (ACV) at the end of the fourth quarter, which represents 14% year-over-year growth in customers. ServiceNow had 19 deals greater than $5 million in net new ACV. It closed 170 deals greater than $1 million net new ACV. Generative Artificial Intelligence (Gen AI) deals continued to gain traction.
ServiceNow is extensively leveraging AI and machine learning technologies to boost the potency of its solutions. Pro Plus AI grew 150% sequentially. It is riding on an expanding partner base and acquisitions. However, NOW is suffering from stiff competition and unfavorable forex.
(You can read the full research report on ServiceNow here >>>)
Progressive’s shares have outperformed the Zacks Insurance - Property and Casualty industry over the past year (+25.9% vs. +23.9%). The company continues to gain on higher premiums, given its compelling product portfolio, leadership position and strength in both Vehicle and Property businesses.
Progressive’s focus on becoming a one-stop insurance destination, catering to customers opting for a combination of home and auto insurance, augurs well for the company's growth. Policies in force and retention ratio should remain healthy. Competitive pricing to retain current customers and address customer needs with new offerings should continue to drive policy life expectancy.
However, exposure to catastrophe losses induces underwriting volatility. Escalating expenses due to higher losses and settlement expenses remain an overhang on the margin. Its high debt level induces higher interest expense concerns.

Shares of Monarch Cement have outperformed the Zacks Building Products - Concrete and Aggregates industry over the past year (+29.7% vs. -12.2%). This microcap company with market capitalization of $856.63 million offers a compelling case for long-term investors with steady fiscal 2024 growth, driven by effective pricing that offset volume declines.
Net sales rose 2% year over year to $268.1 million, with gross profit up 6.7% and cement margins expanding to 52.4%. Strong internal cash generation of $73.6 million supported consistent dividends, including a $2.17 special payout. Retained earnings climbed 13.1% to $368.5 million, boosting equity to $403.9 million and reinforcing capital strength.
Monarch Cement remains debt-free, with $48.8 million in cash and access to $15 million in credit. Its regional footprint and dual revenue streams add diversification, while long-term raw material reserves support sustainable production. A new JV enhances downstream exposure and capital flexibility. Monarch Cement’s brand, balance sheet, and strategic initiatives underscore its durability and income appeal.

Precipio’s shares have outperformed the Zacks Medical Info Systems industry over the year-to-date period (+11.7% vs. -5.2%). This microcap company with a market capitalization of $8.85 million is transitioning from capital preservation to a growth-oriented, self-funded model, driven by its profitable Pathology division, which exceeded its $1.3 million per month breakeven for two straight quarters, and targets a $25 million run-rate by 2025.
The Products unit, flat in fourth-quarter 2024, is poised for growth via leadership changes, major client onboarding and a revamped distribution strategy, aiming to double revenue to $5.6 million. Precipio’s strategic execution, disciplined spending, capital-light model and alignment with precision diagnostics trends support long-term potential.
Risks include fragile liquidity, execution delays, regulatory shifts, customer concentration and macroeconomic headwinds that could pressure growth and margins. The stock appears undervalued, signaling an entry point for value-oriented investors.

Visa’s shares have outperformed the Zacks Financial Transaction Services industry over the past six months (+15.2% vs. +14.7%). The company’s strategic acquisitions and alliances are fostering long-term growth and consistently driving revenues. The company, fueled by persistent increases in payments, cross-border volumes and sustained investments in technology, is witnessing significant profit growth.
The Zacks analyst expects revenues to grow 9.1% in fiscal 2025. The ongoing shift to digital payments is advantageous for Visa, with strong domestic volumes supporting its overall performance. A robust cash position enables the company to enhance shareholder value.
However, elevated operating expenses pose margin challenges. We expect adjusted operating expenses to jump 8.1% in fiscal 2025. It is witnessing a volatile cash volume from the Asia Pacific and U.S. regions. Consumer spending growth is also drying up. Moreover, rising client incentives will affect its adjusted revenues.

Shares of AbbVie have outperformed the Zacks Large Cap Pharmaceuticals industry over the past year (+11.7% vs. -2.2%). The company has successfully navigated Humira's loss of exclusivity by launching two other successful new immunology medicines, Skyrizi and Rinvoq. The drugs are performing extremely well, bolstered by approvals in new indications.
AbbVie has several early/mid-stage candidates that have the potential to drive long-term growth. AbbVie has been on an acquisition spree lately in its core space of immunology.
However, the company faces several near-term headwinds like Humira’s biosimilar erosion, increasing competitive pressure on Imbruvica and slow market growth for Juvederm fillers in the United States and China. AbbVie’s shares have outperformed the industry in the past year. Estimates have declined slightly ahead of Q4 earnings.
(You can read the full research report on AbbVie here >>>)
Analog Devices’ shares have outperformed the Zacks Semiconductor - Analog and Mixed industry over the past year (+16.3% vs. +0.2%). The company is benefiting from strong momentum across the consumer and automotive end markets. Strong momentum across the electric vehicle space on the back of its robust Battery Management System solutions remains a tailwind.
Strong investments in technology and business innovation are contributing well. The solid momentum of the HEV platform across the cabin electronics ecosystem is positive.
Nonetheless, the weak demand environment across multiple end markets remains a major concern. The sluggish communications market due to the broad-based inventory corrections is a major negative. Broad-based weakness in the industrial end market remains a headwind. The ongoing inventory correction is expected to be a headwind for the company in the near term.

Shares of Precipio have outperformed the Zacks Medical Info Systems industry over the past year (+15.0% vs. -12.1%). This microcap company with market capitalization of $8.98 million have achieved breakeven in its Pathology arm for two consecutive quarters in 2024, generating $4.6 million in third-quarter revenues, up 17.7% from the second quarter. Its $20 million annual run rate provides stable cash flow to fund R&D without external capital, highlighting operational efficiency.
The Products arm, with 13.9% third-quarter revenue growth, is poised as a high-margin growth engine, leveraging scalable distribution channels. Cash burn fell 75% year over year to $226,000 in the third quarter, supporting financial stability and non-dilutive growth.
Precipio’s focus on diagnostics innovation, digital transformation and market visibility aligns with precision medicine trends. Risks include Products underperformance, reliance on small sales teams, distributor dependency, competitive pressures, macroeconomic factors and regulatory uncertainties.
