Kogan.com Ltd (ASX: KGN)

The first growth share to look at is Kogan. It is the ecommerce company behind the Kogan, Dick Smith online, and Mighty Ape brands. It also has a number of complementary businesses such as Kogan Mobile, Kogan Internet, and Kogan Money.

The last 12 months have been very mixed for Kogan. After smashing expectations with meteoric sales and profit growth this time last year, inventory issues undid a lot of this and are set to weigh heavily on its full year results in August.

While this is disappointing, it is worth remembering that these issues are only expected to be temporary. In light of this, investors may want to focus on its strong long term growth prospects thanks to its leading market position and the structural shift online.

Credit Suisse believes the weakness in the Kogan share price this year could be a buying opportunity. It currently has an outperform rating and $17.93 price target on its shares.

WiseTech Global Ltd (ASX: WTC)

Another ASX growth share to look at is WiseTech Global. It is the logistics solutions company behind the popular CargoWise One platform. This platform allows users to execute complex logistics transactions and manage freight operations from a single, easy to use platform.

It has been a very positive performer in FY 2021 despite the pandemic. For example, strong demand led to its first half revenue increasing 16% to $238.7 million and its EBITDA rising 43% to $62.5 million.

Pleasingly, management expects its second half performance to be just as strong and is guiding to full year revenue growth of 9% to 19% and EBITDA growth of 30% to 50%. And despite this growth, WiseTech Global's revenue will still be only a fraction of the broader Supply Chain Management Expenditure market which is valued at US$15.2 billion.

Morgan Stanley is bullish on WiseTech Global. Its analysts currently have an overweight rating and $35.00 price target on its shares.
