Investopedia explains 'Supernormal Growth Stock'

Many of the most successful companies in history have experienced supernormal growth at some point in their existence. Specifically, during the early years, future blue-chippers often show appreciation well above the broader market averages, sometimes lasting for several years. Of course, the reason for this growth can usually be attributed to a new product, business model or service.
