Penny Stocks
Penny stocks are those stocks that trade at a low price of less than $1. These stocks also have a small market cap and are speculative in nature. Trading in penny stocks involves a lot of risks. Thus, before making any investment into penny stocks, it is important to conduct a thorough study. A good analysis can result in making huge money, as penny stocks also hold the potential of leading a small investment into a fortune. While on the other side, selection of a wrong stock can result in huge losses, as they are prone to factors like regulatory scrutiny, scams and price manipulations.
In this article, we would discuss four penny stocks that are from diverse sectors and have delivered double digit returns in the last one month, as on 26 September 2019.
IODM Limited
The stock of IODM Limited (ASX: IOD), an IT sector player, has given a double-digit return of 59.42% in the last one month. The stock was trading at a price of $ 0.120 on 26 September 2019 (AEST 11:59 AM), up 9.091% from its previous closing price, trading at its 52-week high price with 578,948 shares.

Sales Update: IODM Limited is a leading accounts receivable and operational efficiency solution provider. On 25 September 2019, the company provided sales update, reporting to continue to show that its best practice digital technology in automating the process of accounts receivable drives operational competences and boosts cash flow. Moreover, it is easy to implement.

IOD has amended the way it used to introduce its software to the market. In some of the cases, the company, instead of invoicing its clients in advance, is invoicing in arrears, i.e. offering a trial period. This trial period is part of the broader ongoing agreement but will offer a slight delay in between the agreement finalisation and the invoicing. Thus, as a result of the working capital movement with respect to cash receipts, Q1 FY2020 would remain consistent with Q4 FY2019. Meanwhile, it was reported that the impact would be seen in the existing quarter and half of the second quarter with the sales cycle operating as per the new sales structure.
The company, as a result of the new sales structure, has speed up the sales pipeline to confirm that the implementation of new customers was brought forward.
Reciprocal Referral Agreement: IODM has signed a reciprocal referral arrangement with cross-border, cross-currency money transfer provider, Western Union.
