Earnings Are Growing at Viavi Solutions (NASDAQ:VIAV) but Shareholders Still Don't Like Its Prospects
It's easy to match the overall market return by buying an index fund. While individual stocks can be big winners, plenty more fail to generate satisfactory returns. For example, the Viavi Solutions Inc. (NASDAQ:VIAV) share price is down 38% in the last year. That contrasts poorly with the market return of 22%. To make matters worse, the returns over three years have also been really disappointing (the share price is 33% lower than three years ago). The falls have accelerated recently, with the share price down 28% in the last three months.
购买指数基金很容易达到与整体市场回报相匹配的水平。虽然个别股票可能是大赢家,但更多的股票无法产生令人满意的回报。例如,Viavi Solutions Inc.(纳斯达克:viv)股价去年下跌了38%。这与22%的市场回报率形成了鲜明对比。更糟糕的是,三年来的回报也真的令人失望(股价比三年前低了33%)。股价最近加速下跌,在过去三个月里下跌了28%。
With the stock having lost 8.1% in the past week, it's worth taking a look at business performance and seeing if there's any red flags.
鉴于该公司股价在过去一周下跌了8.1%,我们有必要看看它的业务表现,看看是否有任何危险信号。

To quote Buffett, 'Ships will sail around the world but the Flat Earth Society will flourish. There will continue to be wide discrepancies between price and value in the marketplace...' One imperfect but simple way to consider how the market perception of a company has shifted is to compare the change in the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price movement.
用巴菲特的话说,“船只将在世界各地航行,但平坦的地球协会将蓬勃发展。市场上的价格和价值之间将继续存在巨大的差异……”一种不完美但简单的方法来考虑市场对一家公司的看法是如何改变的,那就是将每股收益(EPS)的变化与股价走势进行比较。
During the unfortunate twelve months during which the Viavi Solutions share price fell, it actually saw its earnings per share (EPS) improve by 71%. It could be that the share price was previously over-hyped.
不幸的是,在Viavi Solutions股价下跌的12个月里,它的每股收益(EPS)实际上提高了71%。可能是股价之前被过度炒作了。
It's fair to say that the share price does not seem to be reflecting the EPS growth. So it's easy to justify a look at some other metrics.
公平地说,股价似乎并没有反映出每股收益的增长。因此,很容易证明看看其他一些指标是合理的。
On the other hand, we're certainly perturbed by the 14% decline in Viavi Solutions' revenue. If the market sees the weak revenue as jeopardising EPS, that could explain the lower share price.
另一方面,Viavi Solutions的收入下降了14%,这当然让我们感到不安。如果市场认为营收疲软危及每股收益,这可能解释了股价走低的原因。

A Different Perspective
不同的视角
Investors in Viavi Solutions had a tough year, with a total loss of 38%, against a market gain of about 22%. However, keep in mind that even the best stocks will sometimes underperform the market over a twelve month period. Unfortunately, last year's performance may indicate unresolved challenges, given that it was worse than the annualised loss of 6% over the last half decade. We realise that Baron Rothschild has said investors should "buy when there is blood on the streets", but we caution that investors should first be sure they are buying a high quality business. If you would like to research Viavi Solutions in more detail then you might want to take a look at whether insiders have been buying or selling shares in the company.
Viavi Solutions的投资者经历了艰难的一年,总亏损38%,而市场收益约为22%。然而,请记住,即使是最好的股票,在12个月的时间里,有时也会表现逊于市场。不幸的是,去年的表现可能预示着尚未解决的挑战,因为它比过去五年6%的年化损失更糟糕。我们意识到,罗斯柴尔德男爵曾说过,投资者应该“在街上血淋淋的时候买入”,但我们警告投资者,首先应该确保他们购买的是一家高质量的企业。如果你想更详细地研究Viavi Solutions,那么你可能想看看内部人士是否一直在买卖该公司的股票。
