Mercury Systems' stock has surged 50.1% in six months to $110.84 per share, but analysts urge caution. Despite the momentum, we're swiping left on Mercury Systems for now. Here are three reasons you should be careful with MRCY, plus one stock we'd rather own. The company's revenue grew at a sluggish 1.7% compounded annual rate over five years, while its operating margin averaged negative 3.2% and earnings per share declined 13.6% annually. We'd suggest looking at the most entrenched endpoint security platform on the market.
