Cytosorbents (NASDAQ:CTSO) is something of a hit in Europe but is virtually unknown in the U.S.
Its blood-filtering technology, based on porous polymer beads that actively remove specific toxins from blood and other bodily fluids, is being built into a host of filtering products with names like CytoSorb-XL™, HemoDefend™, VetResQ™, K+ontrol™, ContrastSorb, and DrugSorb.
One of these, CytoSorb is already used to filter blood in 53 countries. and that led to a record $5.8 million in revenue for the second quarter of this year. European regulators seem pleased with its ability to filter toxins from blood. So far in 2018, CTSO stock has nearly doubled.
But Cytosorbents’ products are not yet sold in the U.S. As a result, the company has a market cap of only $409 million. Its 2017 sales were just $15 million, but it has $25 million of cash in the bank and debts of less than $10 million.
As baby boomers approach retirement, a surprising number are looking to companies like this for the home runs that may make the difference between caviar and cat food. Since executing a 1:25 reverse split in 2014, when it was a penny stock, CTSO stock has gained a second life over the last two years, up 151% from its opening price on Aug. 28 of slightly over $13.

But what investors are overlooking are the fundamental risks to this logic. Corporate earnings are the lifeblood of the market, keep in mind.

Higher oil prices have already taken a toll on earnings for packaged food giants like Proctor & Gamble (PG) and Tyson Foods (TSN) . Now, each are staring at consumer price increases because it costs more to deliver their products to stores.
