This study also seeks to extend the study of Mateev and Anastasov 1 . A sample of 164 Canadian firms listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange for a period of 3 years from 2008-2010 was selected. This study applied co-relational and non-experimental research design. The findings of this paper show that potential growth of Canadian firms is affected by firm size current liquidity leverage cash flow age and industry. This study contributes to the literature on the factors that affect potential growth of the firm. The findings may be useful for financial managers investors and financial management consultants.

This study examines the factors that affect the potential growth of Canadian firms listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange. Potential growth in the context of this study is defined as estimated growth that a firm sees based on the parameters like firm size cash flows capital structure previous years performance and others. The understanding of the potential growth is important for investors who like to invest in the stock market. Different theories that have attempted to identify the main
