JAKKS Pacific, Inc. (NASDAQ:JAKK) shareholders might be concerned after seeing the share price drop 26% in the last week. But that doesn't change the fact that the returns over the last three years have been very strong. Indeed, the share price is up a very strong 255% in that time. To some, the recent share price pullback wouldn't be surprising after such a good run. The thing to consider is whether the underlying business is doing well enough to support the current price.

Although JAKKS Pacific has shed US$92m from its market cap this week, let's take a look at its longer term fundamental trends and see if they've driven returns.

While the efficient markets hypothesis continues to be taught by some, it has been proven that markets are over-reactive dynamic systems, and investors are not always rational. By comparing earnings per share (EPS) and share price changes over time, we can get a feel for how investor attitudes to a company have morphed over time.

During three years of share price growth, JAKKS Pacific moved from a loss to profitability. That kind of transition can be an inflection point that justifies a strong share price gain, just as we have seen here.
