Swelling Losses Haven't Held Back Gains for QuinStreet (NASDAQ:QNST) Shareholders Since They're up 60% Over 1 Year
Swelling Losses Haven't Held Back Gains for QuinStreet (NASDAQ:QNST) Shareholders Since They're up 60% Over 1 Year
QuinStreet, Inc. (NASDAQ:QNST) shareholders might be concerned after seeing the share price drop 12% in the last quarter. While that might be a setback, it doesn't negate the nice returns received over the last twelve months. To wit, it had solidly beat the market, up 60%.
在过去的一个季度中,QuinStreet,Inc. (纳斯达克股票代码:QNST) 的股价下跌了12%,股东们可能会担心。虽然这可能是一个挫折,但过去12个月里获得的良好回报并不会抵消这一点。实际上,它已经稳定地超过了市场,上涨了60%。
While this past week has detracted from the company's one-year return, let's look at the recent trends of the underlying business and see if the gains have been in alignment.
虽然过去一周拖累了公司的一年回报,但让我们看一下基础业务的最近趋势,以查看是否取得了进展。
QuinStreet wasn't profitable in the last twelve months, it is unlikely we'll see a strong correlation between its share price and its earnings per share (EPS). Arguably revenue is our next best option. Generally speaking, companies without profits are expected to grow revenue every year, and at a good clip. That's because it's hard to be confident a company will be sustainable if revenue growth is negligible, and it never makes a profit.
过去12个月,QuinStreet没有实现盈利,它的股价与每股收益(EPS)之间的强相关性不大。可以说,营业收入是我们下一个最好的选择。一般来说,没有盈利的公司被期望每年都增长营业收入,且速度要快。因为如果营业收入增长微不足道,而且从未盈利,难以有信心认为公司将是可持续的。
In the last year QuinStreet saw its revenue shrink by 8.6%. Despite the lack of revenue growth, the stock has returned a solid 60% the last twelve months. To us that means that there isn't a lot of correlation between the past revenue performance and the share price, but a closer look at analyst forecasts and the bottom line may well explain a lot.
在过去的一年中,QuinStreet营业收入缩水了8.6%。尽管缺乏营业收入增长,但股票在过去的12个月中赚取了可观的60%回报。对我们来说,这意味着过去的营业收入绩效与股价之间没有很大的相关性,但深入研究分析师预测和最终利润可能会解释很多问题。

A Different Perspective

We're pleased to report that QuinStreet shareholders have received a total shareholder return of 60% over one year. That certainly beats the loss of about 1.3% per year over the last half decade. This makes us a little wary, but the business might have turned around its fortunes. I find it very interesting to look at share price over the long term as a proxy for business performance. But to truly gain insight, we need to consider other information, too. Consider for instance, the ever-present spectre of investment risk. We've identified 1 warning sign with QuinStreet , and understanding them should be part of your investment process.
我们很高兴报告称,QuinStreet的股东在过去的一年中获得了总股东回报率的60%。这当然比过去五年中每年约1.3%的亏损要好。这让我们有点谨慎,但该业务可能已经扭转了它的命运。我觉得长期以股价作为业务表现的代表非常有趣。但是,为了真正获得洞察力,我们需要考虑其他信息。例如,不断存在的投资风险的幽灵。我们已经确定了1个与QuinStreet有关的警告信号,了解它们应该是您投资过程的一部分。
