Penny stocks, although an older term, continue to capture interest due to their potential for growth at lower price points. These smaller or newer companies can offer unique value when they possess strong financials and clear growth trajectories.

The company is pre-revenue, generating only US$0.55 million from its pharmaceuticals segment and remains unprofitable with increasing losses over five years.
