1 Cash-Heavy Stock for Long-Term Investors and 2 to Question
A cash-heavy balance sheet is often a sign of strength, but not always. Some companies avoid debt because they have weak business models, limited expansion opportunities, or inconsistent cash flow.

That said, here is one company with a net cash position that balances growth with stability and two with hidden risks. Net Cash Position: $180.9 million (15.1% of Market Cap) Founded in 1971, Marcus & Millichap (NYSE:MMI) specializes in commercial real estate investment sales, financing, research, and advisory services. Why Do We Think MMI Will Underperform? Products and services have few die-hard fans as sales have declined by 3.2% annually over the last five years Cash-burning history makes us doubt the long-term viability of its business model Shrinking returns on capital suggest that increasing competition is eating into the company's profitability Marcus & Millichap is trading at $30.71 per share, or 307.1x forward P/E. Read our free research report to see why you should think twice about including MMI in your portfolio, it's free. Net Cash Position: $242.4 million (3.6% of Market Cap) Tracing its roots back to 1888 when a worker accidentally dropped a textile mill payroll into the dust, prompting the need for better banking, Synovus Financial (NYSE:SNV) is a regional financial services company that provides commercial and consumer banking, wealth management, and specialized lending services across five southeastern states. Why Does SNV Fall Short? Muted 4.2% annual net interest income growth over the last four years shows its demand lagged behind its bank peers Net interest margin of 3.2% reflects its high servicing and capital costs Muted 2.9% annual tangible book value per share growth over the last five years shows its capital generation lagged behind its bank peers At $48.76 per share, Synovus Financial trades at 1.3x forward P/B.
