Omnijoi Media Corporation (SZSE:300528) shareholders should be happy to see the share price up 22% in the last month. But that is minimal compensation for the share price under-performance over the last year. The cold reality is that the stock has dropped 31% in one year, under-performing the market.

The recent uptick of 19% could be a positive sign of things to come, so let's take a look at historical fundamentals.

Given that Omnijoi Media didn't make a profit in the last twelve months, we'll focus on revenue growth to form a quick view of its business development. Generally speaking, companies without profits are expected to grow revenue every year, and at a good clip. As you can imagine, fast revenue growth, when maintained, often leads to fast profit growth.

Omnijoi Media grew its revenue by 26% over the last year. That's definitely a respectable growth rate. Meanwhile, the share price is down 31% over twelve months, which is disappointing given the progress made. This implies the market was expecting better growth. However, that's in the past now, and it's the future that matters most.

A Different Perspective

While the broader market lost about 10% in the twelve months, Omnijoi Media shareholders did even worse, losing 31%. Having said that, it's inevitable that some stocks will be oversold in a falling market. The key is to keep your eyes on the fundamental developments. Regrettably, last year's performance caps off a bad run, with the shareholders facing a total loss of 1.1% per year over five years. 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 Omnijoi Media better, we need to consider many other factors. Consider risks, for instance.
