Growth stocks are attractive to many investors, as above-average financial growth helps these stocks easily grab the market&#39;s attention and produce exceptional returns. But finding a growth stock that can live up to its true potential can be a tough task.
In addition to volatility, these stocks carry above-average risk by their very nature. Also, one could end up losing from a stock whose growth story is actually over or nearing its end.
However, the Zacks Growth Style Score, which looks beyond the traditional growth attributes to analyze a company&#39;s real growth prospects, makes it pretty easy to find cutting-edge growth stocks.
CRA International (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/crai#NASDAQ">CRAI</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 returns are even better for stocks that possess the combination of a Growth Score of A or B and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) or 2 (Buy).
While there are numerous reasons why the stock of this consulting firm is a great growth pick right now, we have highlighted three of the most important factors below:
<h2>Earnings Growth</h2>
Earnings growth is arguably the most important factor, as stocks exhibiting exceptionally surging profit levels tend to attract the attention of most investors. And for growth investors, double-digit earnings growth is definitely preferable, and often an indication of strong prospects (and stock price gains) for the company under consideration.
While the historical EPS growth rate for CRA is 17.8%, investors should actually focus on the projected growth. The company&#39;s EPS is expected to grow 23.5% this year, crushing the industry average, which calls for EPS growth of 5.2%.
<h2>Impressive Asset Utilization Ratio</h2>
Asset utilization ratio -- also known as sales-to-total-assets (S/TA) ratio -- is often overlooked by investors, but it is an important indicator in growth investing. This metric shows how efficiently a firm is utilizing its assets to generate sales.
Right now, CRA has an S/TA ratio of 1.19, which means that the company gets $1.19 in sales for each dollar in assets. Comparing this to the industry average of 1.09, it can be said that the company is more efficient.
While the level of efficiency in generating sales matters a lot, so does the sales growth of a company. And CRA is well positioned from a sales growth perspective too. The company&#39;s sales are expected to grow 7.8% this year versus the industry average of 3.8%.
<h2>Promising Earnings Estimate Revisions</h2>
Beyond the metrics outlined above, investors should consider the trend in earnings estimate revisions. A positive trend is a plus here. Empirical research shows that there is a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and near-term stock price movements.
The current-year earnings estimates for CRA have been revising upward. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the current year has surged 9% over the past month.
<h2>Bottom Line</h2>
CRA 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 positions CRA well for outperformance, so growth investors may want to bet on it.

CRA is an Incredible Growth Stock: 3 Reasons Why

Accenture plc (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/acn#NYSE">ACN</a>) shares have gained 7% in the past three months, outperforming 1.1% growth of the industry it belongs to and the 2.4% rise of the S&amp;P 500 composite.
Accenturehas an impressive&nbsp;Growth Score&nbsp;of B. This style score condenses all the essential metrics from the company&#39;s financial statements to get a true sense of the quality and sustainability of its growth.
<div class="chart_embed">
<h3>Accenture PLC Price</h3>
<img alt="Accenture PLC Price" src="https://staticx-tuner.zacks.com/images/charts/2c/1723817828.png" style="height:310px; width:600px" title="" />
Accenture PLC price | Accenture PLC Quote
The company has an expected long-term earnings per share (three to five years) growth rate of 7.5%. Earnings are expected to increase 2.4% year over year in fiscal 2024 and 5.3% in fiscal 2025.
</div>
<h3>Factors That Bode Well</h3>
Accenture&#39;s growth strategy focuses on delivering 360&deg; value to its stakeholders, mainly through the use of technology. The company focuses on long-term growth by building a digital core with the help of cloud, data, AI, technology evolution and investment in talent. We believe this strategy positions Accenture as a trusted partner for its clients.
The company continues to witness strong demand for application modernization and maintenance, cloud enablement and cybersecurity-as-a-service. These trends are boosting Accenture&#39;s managed services business across the world. Managed services revenues increased 2% year over year in the third quarter of fiscal 2024 and 11% in fiscal 2023. We expect these revenues to grow 4.5% and 4.8%, respectively, in fiscal 2024 and 2025.
Accenture has a disciplined acquisition strategy focused on channeling its business in high-growth areas, adding skills and capabilities and deepening industry and functional expertise. The company spent $2.5 billion across 25 acquisitions in fiscal 2023.
Commitment to shareholder returns makes Accenture a reliable bet for investors to compound wealth over the long term. In fiscal 2023, 2022, and 2021, the company paid $2.8 billion, $2.5 billion and $2.2 billion in dividends, respectively. We are expecting steady growth in income, which will translate to steady cash flow, enabling it to pay out stable dividends. Per our estimates, the company&#39;s net income will grow 5.2% and 5.8%, respectively, in fiscal 2024 and 2025.
<h3>Some Risks</h3>
Higher talent costs due to a competitive talent market are hurting consulting services providers like Accenture. The industry is labor-intensive and heavily dependent on foreign talent. Moreover, while advancements in automation and AI offer massive opportunities to the industry, these technologies enable clients to comprehend and integrate new methods to improve performance, thereby creating uncertainty for consulting services firms.
<h3>Zacks Rank and Stocks to Consider</h3>
ACN currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).
A couple of better-ranked stocks are Charles River Associates (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/crai#NASDAQ">CRAI</a>) and Docusign (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/docu#NASDAQ">DOCU</a>).
CRAI carries a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).
Charles River Associates has a long-term earnings growth expectation of 16%. The company has an encouraging track record for earnings surprise, having surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in three of the last four quarters and missing once. The average beat is 23.5%. Shares of CRAI have risen 53.7% in the past year.
Docusign currently has a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). It has a long-term earnings growth expectation of 7.3%.
The company delivered an earnings surprise of 15.7%, on average, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate in each of the trailing four quarters. Shares of DocuSign have risen 18.6% in the past year.
