Flawless balance sheet with high growth potential

CTK is currently trading below its true value, which means the market is undervaluing the company's expected cash flow going forward. This mispricing gives investors the opportunity to buy into the stock at a cheap price compared to the value they will be receiving, should analysts' consensus forecast growth be correct. Compared to the rest of the software industry, CTK is also trading below its peers, relative to earnings generated. This further reaffirms that CTK is potentially undervalued.

CTK's strong financial health means that all of its upcoming liability payments are able to be met by its current cash and short-term investment holdings. This indicates that CTK has sufficient cash flows and proper cash management in place, which is a key determinant of the company’s health. Investors should not worry about CTK’s debt levels because the company has none! It has only utilized funding from its equity capital to run the business, which is typically normal for a small-cap company. CTK has plenty of financial flexibility, without debt obligations to meet in the short term, as well as the headroom to raise debt should it need to in the future.
