Operations: The company's revenue is primarily derived from its apparel segment, which generated CA$2.45 billion.

Insider Ownership: 16.1%

Aritzia demonstrates strong growth potential with earnings forecasted to increase significantly, outpacing the Canadian market.

Recent reports show improved financial performance with Q2 sales of C$615.66 million and net income of C$18.25 million, reversing a loss from the previous year.

Orla Mining (TSX:OLA)

Simply Wall St Growth Rating: ★★★★★☆

Overview: Orla Mining Ltd. is involved in the acquisition, exploration, development, and exploitation of mineral properties with a market cap of CA$2.60 billion.

Operations: The company's revenue segment includes CA$314.10 million from the evaluation and exploration of mineral exploration properties.

Insider Ownership: 11.5%

Orla Mining is poised for significant growth, with revenue and earnings expected to grow faster than the Canadian market. The company's recent acquisition of the Musselwhite Gold Mine will enhance its production capacity and free cash flow. Despite past shareholder dilution, Orla's strategic focus on expanding its resource base, including promising drill results at Camino Rojo's Zone 22, supports its growth trajectory. However, lower profit margins compared to last year may warrant investor attention.

Insider Ownership: 21%

TerraVest Industries demonstrates robust growth potential, with earnings forecasted to increase by 21.3% annually, outpacing the Canadian market's average. Despite significant insider selling recently, more shares were bought than sold over the past three months. The company's recent inclusion in multiple S&P/TSX indices underscores its market relevance. However, TerraVest faces challenges such as high debt levels and a recent decline in quarterly net income despite strong annual revenue growth to C$911.82 million from C$678.35 million last year.
