Have you been paying attention to shares of Badger Meter (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/bmi#NYSE">BMI</a>)? Shares have been on the move with the stock up 6% over the past month. The stock hit a new 52-week high of $215.94 in the previous session. Badger Meter has gained 38.4% since the start of the year compared to the 20.3% move for the Zacks Computer and Technology sector and the 11.1% return for the Zacks Instruments - Control industry.
<h2>What&#39;s Driving the Outperformance?</h2>
The stock has an impressive record of positive earnings surprises, as it hasn&#39;t missed our earnings consensus estimate in any of the last four quarters. In its last earnings report on July 19, 2024, Badger Meter reported EPS of $1.12 versus consensus estimate of $0.98 while it beat the consensus revenue estimate by 7.86%.
For the current fiscal year, Badger Meter is expected to post earnings of $4.09 per share on $821.88 million in revenues. This represents a 30.25% change in EPS on a 16.81% change in revenues. For the next fiscal year, the company is expected to earn $4.66 per share on $891.5 million in revenues. This represents a year-over-year change of 13.92% and 8.47%, respectively.
<h2>Valuation Metrics</h2>
Badger Meter may be at a 52-week high right now, but what might the future hold for the stock? A key aspect of this question is taking a look at valuation metrics in order to determine if the company has run ahead of itself.
On this front, we can look at the Zacks Style Scores, as they provide investors with an additional way to sort through stocks (beyond looking at the Zacks Rank of a security). These styles are represented by grades running from A to F in the categories of Value, Growth, and Momentum, while there is a combined VGM Score as well. The idea behind the style scores is to help investors pick the most appropriate Zacks Rank stocks based on their individual investment style.
Badger Meter has a Value Score of D. The stock&#39;s Growth and Momentum Scores are B and B, respectively, giving the company a VGM Score of B.
In terms of its value breakdown, the stock currently trades at 52.3X current fiscal year EPS estimates, which is a premium to the peer industry average of 25.4X. On a trailing cash flow basis, the stock currently trades at 51.9X versus its peer group&#39;s average of 20.7X. Additionally, the stock has a PEG ratio of 2.92. This isn&#39;t enough to put the company in the top echelon of all stocks we cover from a value perspective.
<h2>Zacks Rank</h2>
We also need to look at the Zacks Rank for the stock, as this supersedes any trend on the style score front. Fortunately, Badger Meter currently has a Zacks Rank of #2 (Buy) thanks to favorable earnings estimate revisions from covering analysts.
Since we recommend that investors select stocks carrying Zacks Rank of 1 (Strong Buy) or 2 (Buy) and Style Scores of A or B, it looks as if Badger Meter meets the list of requirements. Thus, it seems as though Badger Meter shares could have potential in the weeks and months to come.

In a recent exclusive interview with Benzinga, Paul Eitelman, chief investment strategist for North America at Russell Investments, provided insights into the sectors of small-cap stocks that stand out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/small-cap-analysis">amidst economic uncertainty</a>.
While small-caps as a whole face some macroeconomic risks, Eitelman highlights several specific sectors that could offer substantial opportunities.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Where Small-Cap Managers Are Finding Opportunities</h1>
Eitelman notes that &#8220;dedicated small-cap managers are finding opportunities to tilt their portfolio strategies toward banks, technology and select highly indebted companies that are likely to benefit from lower interest rates going forward.&#8221; These sectors are positioned to thrive, especially as interest rates begin to decline.
Technology continues to dominate market discussions, and small-cap tech companies could be key beneficiaries of economic shifts, particularly those aligned with innovative growth areas like AI and data services.
The Russell 2000 index is one of the more popular indices tracking small cap U.S. equity. ETFs that track this index include the iShares Russell 2000 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IWM#NYSE">IWM</a>), the Vanguard Russell 2000 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VTWO#NYSE">VTWO</a>) and the Avantis US Small Cap Equity ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVSC#NYSE">AVSC</a>). The Invesco S&amp;P SmallCap Information Technology ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PSCT#NYSE">PSCT</a>) is a lesser-known but technology-focused ETF tracking small cap companies. The top 3 holdings of this ETF are Fabrinet (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FN#NYSE">FN</a>), SPS Commerce, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPSC#NASDAQ">SPSC</a>) and Badger Meter Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMI#NYSE">BMI</a>).

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Stock Selection: Primary Driver Of Risk, Return</h1>
However, Eitelman cautions that given the high macroeconomic uncertainty, broad sector bets are risky. He recommends a more refined approach: "Our preference into high macro uncertainty is to target only modest sector tilts and let stock selection shine as the primary driver of risk and return."
This focus on stock selection over aggressive sector rotation makes sense in an environment where not all companies are equally positioned to navigate fluctuating interest rates or economic slowdowns. 
Banks, for example, are likely to benefit from a soft landing scenario, while indebted companies could see relief as rates fall. Tech remains a favorite sector due to its long-term growth prospects, even amid near-term uncertainty.
Overall, Eitelman's strategy emphasizes precision and caution, advising investors to prioritize stock-picking and avoid broad over-exposure in the small-cap space.

GoDaddy Aids Small Business Marketing in Digital Sector

Growth investors focus on stocks that are seeing above-average financial growth, as this feature helps these securities garner the market&#39;s attention and deliver solid returns. But finding a great growth stock is not easy at all.
That&#39;s because, these stocks usually carry above-average risk and volatility. In fact, betting on a stock for which the growth story is actually over or nearing its end could lead to significant loss.
However, it&#39;s pretty easy to find cutting-edge growth stocks with the help of the Zacks Growth Style Score, which looks beyond the traditional growth attributes to analyze a company&#39;s real growth prospects.
Badger Meter (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/bmi#NYSE">BMI</a>) is one such stock that our proprietary system currently recommends. The company not only has a favorable Growth Score, but also carries a top Zacks Rank.
Studies have shown that stocks with the best growth features consistently outperform the market. And for stocks that have a combination of a Growth Score of A or B and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) or 2 (Buy), returns are even better.
Here are three of the most important factors that make the stock of this manufacturer of products that measure gas and water flow a great growth pick right now.
<h2>Earnings Growth</h2>
Arguably nothing is more important than earnings growth, as surging profit levels is what most investors are after. For growth investors, double-digit earnings growth is highly preferable, as it is often perceived as an indication of strong prospects (and stock price gains) for the company under consideration.
While the historical EPS growth rate for Badger Meter is 19.1%, investors should actually focus on the projected growth. The company&#39;s EPS is expected to grow 29.2% this year, crushing the industry average, which calls for EPS growth of 17.4%.
<h2>Cash Flow Growth</h2>
Cash is the lifeblood of any business, but higher-than-average cash flow growth is more beneficial and important for growth-oriented companies than for mature companies. That&#39;s because, high cash accumulation enables these companies to undertake new projects without raising expensive outside funds.
Right now, year-over-year cash flow growth for Badger Meter is 30.2%, which is higher than many of its peers. In fact, the rate compares to the industry average of 25.6%.
While investors should actually consider the current cash flow growth, it&#39;s worth taking a look at the historical rate too for putting the current reading into proper perspective. The company&#39;s annualized cash flow growth rate has been 11.8% over the past 3-5 years versus the industry average of 9.1%.
<h2>Promising Earnings Estimate Revisions</h2>
Superiority of a stock in terms of the metrics outlined above can be further validated by looking at the trend in earnings estimate revisions. A positive trend is of course favorable here. Empirical research shows that there is a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and near-term stock price movements.
There have been upward revisions in current-year earnings estimates for Badger Meter. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the current year has surged 3% over the past month.
<h2>Bottom Line</h2>
Badger Meter has not only earned a Growth Score of B based on a number of factors, including the ones discussed above, but it also carries a Zacks Rank #1 because of the positive earnings estimate revisions.
This combination indicates that Badger Meter is a potential outperformer and a solid choice for growth investors.
