On CNBC’s “Mad Money Lightning Round,” Jim Cramer said he likes Medline Inc. (NASDAQ:MDLN), adding that it is “probably the best IPO of the year.”

Medline announced that it will report second-quarter financial results on Wednesday, Aug. 5. Analysts expect the company to report quarterly earnings at 32 cents per share on revenue of $7.52 billion.

AST SpaceMobile, Inc. (NASDAQ:ASTS) is a “great speculative” stock, Cramer said. “I think you can make money in two years. I would go for it.”

The company announced on June 23 that its next three BlueBird satellites are scheduled to launch in the first half of August, expanding its space-based cellular broadband network.

AST SpaceMobile announced Tuesday that BlueBird satellites 11, 12, and 13 are targeted to launch aboard a Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral, Florida, in the first half of August.

Cramer said NuScale Power Corporation (NYSE:SMR) is “too speculative” for him, adding that he likes GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE:GEV) as it is safer.

NuScale Power announced it will host a conference call to review second-quarter results on Wednesday, Aug. 5. Analysts expect the company to report a quarterly loss of 13 cents per share on revenue of $14.71 million.
