Consumption price goal: $ 40.40 (44.1% implicit return)

Sweetgreen (NYSE: SG) was founded in 2007 by Three Georgetown University Alaun and is a casual chain known for its healthy salads and bowls.

Why do we think twice about SG?

2. The burning of money burns doubts us about the long -term viability of his business model

3. Short Cash Runway increases the probability of a capital survey that wateres down the existing shareholders

Consumption price goal: $ 8.06 (64.8% implicit return)

The European Wax Center (Nasdaq: EWCZ) was founded by two siblings and is a salon chain specializing in professional wax services and skin care products.

Why is EWCZ not exciting?

2. Sales will be forecast by 2.4% in the next 12 months, since the demand evaporates

3. Below average capital returns state that management had difficulty finding convincing investment opportunities

The European wax center deals with $ 3.83 per share or 10.1-fold price-performance ratio. Read our free Research report to see why you should think twice to include EWCZ in your portfolio. It’s free.

Consumption price goal: $ 88 (33% implicit return)

EPLUS (NASDAQ: Plus) begins in 1990 as a financing company before it develops into a full-service technology provider, comprehensive IT solutions, professional services and financing options, to help companies optimize their technology infrastructure and supply chain processes.

Why is plus too short?

1. The annual sales growth of 2.4% in the past two years has been below our standards for the business service sector

2. A falling result per share in the past two years has worried some investors, since the share prices will ultimately follow EPS in the long term

3. A lack of free cash flow generation means only a few chances of investing growth, returning stocks or distributing capital
