Top Tech Penny Stocks for Q3 2021

The technology sector consists of businesses that develop, build, and market consumer electronics, electronic components, and software. Companies in the tech sector may also provide information technology (IT) services such as cloud computing. While the best-known companies are giants like Apple Inc. (AAPL) and Microsoft Inc. (MSFT), there also are tech businesses that are classified as penny stocks. Penny stocks typically trade at $5 per share or less. Investing in penny stocks can be especially risky and may entail higher trading costs. Investors should therefore be careful when considering whether to invest in these or similar securities.

There is no widely-used benchmark for tech penny stocks, and their performance has varied significantly over the past 12 months. However, the Invesco S&P SmallCap Info Tech ETF (PSCT) provides a general indicator for tech penny stocks. PSCT has outperformed the broader market in the past year, providing a 1-year trailing total return of 56.6% compared with 37.2% for the Russell 1000. These market performance numbers and all statistics in the tables below are as of June 10, 2021.

Here are the top three tech penny stocks with the best value, the fastest growth, and the most momentum, respectively.

These are the tech penny stocks with the lowest 12-month trailing price-to-sales (P/S) ratio. For companies in early stages of development or industries suffering from major shocks, this can be substituted as a rough measure of a business’s value. A business with higher sales could eventually produce more profit when it achieves, or returns to, profitability. The price-to-sales ratio shows how much you’re paying for the stock for each dollar of sales generated.

• Waitr Holdings Inc.: Waitr Holdings is an on-demand food ordering and delivery company. Its online platform connects restaurants to diners and allows users to discover, order, and receive food from local restaurants and national chains. Waitr announced in early May financial results for Q1 of its 2021 fiscal year (FY), the three-month period ended March 31, 2021. The company’s net loss widened to $3.7 million from $2.1 million in the year-ago quarter even as revenue rose 15.1%. Other expenses expanded considerably compared to the same quarter a year ago, contributing to the recent quarter’s larger net loss.

These are the tech penny stocks with the highest year-over-year (YOY) sales growth for the most recent quarter. Rising sales can help investors pick out growing startups that have not yet reached profitability. In addition, earnings per share can be significantly influenced by accounting factors that may not reflect the overall strength of the business. However, sales growth can also be potentially misleading about the strength of a business, because growing sales on money-losing businesses can be harmful if the company has no plan to reach profitability.
