Wealth Within senior analysts Filip Tortevski and Pedro Banales have identified three small-cap ASX stocks they believe investors should be watching closely due to strong catalysts and improving technical setups.

Hear from all the ASX-listed companies that were at the RIU Resources Round-Up in Sydney, right here on HotCopper.com. Over a dozen interviews here.

The first is Aroa Biosurgery (ASX:ARX), an AI-driven cardiac imaging company operating in the rapidly growing healthcare AI sector. According to Filip Tortevski and Pedro Banales, the company has moved beyond concept and is focused on commercialisation, reducing some of the risks commonly associated with early-stage biotech businesses. The stock has recently broken a long-term downtrend and established support around 50 cents, with 80 cents representing a key level to watch.

The second company is Wrkr (ASX:WRK), which is positioned to benefit from Australia’s upcoming Payday Super reforms. Filip Tortevski highlighted that the changes will require employers to pay superannuation at the same time as wages, creating a significant opportunity for payroll and compliance providers.

The company has recently secured major superannuation clients and acquired payroll compliance platform PaidRight, helping drive strong revenue growth.

The third stock is Acusensus (ASX:ACE), a road safety technology company generating revenue through government contracts. Filip Tortevski noted that, unlike many newly listed companies, Acusensus has maintained a strong uptrend since listing, consistently producing higher highs and higher lows.

The stock is currently testing an important support area, with a move above $1.50 to $1.70 potentially signalling the next phase of growth.

While all three carry the higher risks associated with small-cap investing, Tortevski and Banales believe each offers exposure to unique growth themes that could attract increasing investor attention over the coming years.
