BARS: EXEL Revenue

Exelixis, Inc. (NASDAQ:EXEL) has shown a 130.37% year-over-year revenue change and 235.86% two-year change. When a company grows revenue this quickly, shows positive two-year revenue growth and is trending consecutively higher, top line growth may supersede earnings and free cash flow in the short to intermediate term. If revenue stays trending, Exelixis, Inc. could find net income and cash from operations growing rapidly in the near future.

While revenue for Exelixis, Inc. (NASDAQ:EXEL) is trending higher, we note that net income is still negative over the last year. All things are forgiven when revenue stays trending higher, but there is serious risk to the stock price for EXEL if the revenue trend hits a wall while earnings stays negative. We do note the criticality of cash from operations, which is in fact positive for Exelixis, Inc. (NASDAQ:EXEL) even with negative earnings.

Here is a more myopic view of the exploding revenue data in tabular format for the last two-years:
