Shareholders in AXT (NASDAQ:AXTI) Have Lost 74%, as Stock Drops 30% This Past Week
While it may not be enough for some shareholders, we think it is good to see the AXT, Inc. (NASDAQ:AXTI) share price up 29% in a single quarter. But only the myopic could ignore the astounding decline over three years. The share price has sunk like a leaky ship, down 74% in that time. So we're relieved for long term holders to see a bit of uplift. Only time will tell if the company can sustain the turnaround.
尽管这对某些股东来说可能还不够,但我们认为AXT, Inc.(纳斯达克股票代码:AXTI)股价在单季度内上涨29%是件好事。但是,只有近视者才能忽视三年来的惊人下降。股价像一艘漏水的船一样下跌,当时下跌了74%。因此,长期持有人看到一点提振,我们松了一口气。只有时间才能证明公司能否维持这种转变。
Given the past week has been tough on shareholders, let's investigate the fundamentals and see what we can learn.
鉴于过去一周对股东来说很艰难,让我们调查一下基本面,看看我们能学到什么。
While markets are a powerful pricing mechanism, share prices reflect investor sentiment, not just underlying business performance. 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.
虽然市场是一种强大的定价机制,但股价反映了投资者的情绪,而不仅仅是潜在的业务表现。考虑市场对公司的看法发生了怎样的变化的一种不完美但简单的方法是将每股收益(EPS)的变化与股价走势进行比较。
AXT saw its share price decline over the three years in which its EPS also dropped, falling to a loss. Due to the loss, it's not easy to use EPS as a reliable guide to the business. However, we can say we'd expect to see a falling share price in this scenario.
AXT的股价在三年中下跌,其每股收益也下降至亏损。由于亏损,使用EPS作为可靠的业务指南并不容易。但是,我们可以说,在这种情况下,我们预计股价将下跌。

A Different Perspective
不同的视角
AXT shareholders are down 16% for the year, but the market itself is up 27%. Even the share prices of good stocks drop sometimes, but we want to see improvements in the fundamental metrics of a business, before getting too interested. 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. Generally speaking long term share price weakness can be a bad sign, though contrarian investors might want to research the stock in hope of a turnaround. It's always interesting to track share price performance over the longer term. But to understand AXT better, we need to consider many other factors. Take risks, for example - AXT has 1 warning sign we think you should be aware of.
AXT股东今年下跌了16%,但市场本身上涨了27%。即使是优质股票的股价有时也会下跌,但我们希望在过于感兴趣之前看到企业基本指标的改善。不幸的是,去年的表现可能预示着尚未解决的挑战,因为它比过去五年中6%的年化亏损还要糟糕。总的来说,长期股价疲软可能是一个坏兆头,尽管逆势投资者可能希望研究该股以期出现转机。长期跟踪股价表现总是很有意思的。但是,为了更好地理解 AXT,我们需要考虑许多其他因素。例如,冒险吧——AXT 有 1 个警告标志,我们认为你应该注意。
