Zulily Inc (ZU) was founded five years ago and brought a lot of attention — and wealth — to the region as the online retailer took off and its stock popped. In February 2014, the stock price even crested $72 a share.
But for more than a year now, those early investors have been stuck riding the company’s ups and downs.
Revenue isn’t growing as fast as some investors predictable and one analyst even apologized for ever recommending the company.
That may come as a surprise to people here in the Puget Sound region who has watched the company grow. Zulily was Washington’s fastest-growing public company last year when measured by revenue, one of the first times a retailer has topped that list. Zulily’s revenue raised 262 percent between 2012 and 2014, and hit $1 billion last year.

In an afternoon trade, Plug Power Inc (NASDAQ:PLUG)‘s shares surge 0.77% to $2.62.
Plug Power Inc. (PLUG) in the fuel systems and storage business. It hit the mainstream news rounds when the stock rose literally from pennies to about $12 in stock price. Since then, the stock has fallen back down over 80%. The run up was a bit of bad money chasing overblown momentum, but the fundamentals surrounding the firm did drastically change for the better. That’s simply a fact. All of a sudden the company is signing multi-million dollar contracts and to date, those contracts have (for the most part) come in.
On the other hand, the company has never turned a profit or positive free cash flow and it is sustaining operations with a rather sizeable stock selling program. But, love it or hate it, PLUG has seen revenue (TTM) rise over both one- and two-years by 164.55% and 174.46%, respectively. Revenue in the most recent trailing-twelve-months is $68 million. Last year PLUG stated $26 million and two-years ago annual revenue was $25.
The average estimate for next quarter’s revenue of $19.7 million is well above last quarter’s $9.4 million. In English, revenue is busting at the seams. It’s everything else that’s the problem.
