3 Small Caps With Revenues Rising In The Double Digits

Amid the growing discussion of a correction, investors are naturally looking for stocks that will hold up well.

Two important considerations to factor, in a decision to buy, are seeking out those publicly traded companies that have increasing revenues and that are in defensive sectors. United-Guardian UG, The Original SoupMan SOUP and Quadrant 4 Systems QFOR are three appealing small caps for riding out a market downturn, as each has a tremendous upside.

United-Guardian is a small cap that offers everything like a blue chip.

The consumer products company has high growth, no debt and a robust dividend yield of 3.33 percent. The average dividend yield for a member of the Standard & Poor's 500 Index SPY is under two percent. Its profit margin is 38.30 percent, with sales and earnings rising. This is a small cap to buy in any downturn, as the short float of just 0.22 percent show few on Wall Street are expecting it to fall.

Revenues are rising by 39.40 percent on a quarterly basis for The Original SoupMan.

The premier soup maker is increasing its market presence. A small cap, it is ranked third for brand awareness in soups behind Campbell CPB and Progresso from General Mills GIS. This is very impressive, as Campbell Soup and General Mills are two highly visible blue chips. That high brand profile will serve the shareholders of SoupMan well if a correction does come.

Quadrant 4 System is up more than 500 percent for the last year of market action.

Its revenues are rising by 38.40 percent on a quarterly basis, according to Yahoo! Finance. This information technology company, with an emphasis in health care, posted a gross profit that is about one-quarter of revenues. In addition, annual revenues are just about equal to its market capitalization. As such, Quadrant 4 System is appealing to both growth and value investors.

United Guardian, Quadrant 4 System, and SoupMan all have indicators that point to gains ahead, no matter what happens to the overall market.
