Further Upside For Nuode New Materials Co.,Ltd. (SHSE:600110) Shares Could Introduce Price Risks After 39% Bounce

The Nuode New Materials Co.,Ltd. (SHSE:600110) share price has done very well over the last month, posting an excellent gain of 39%. Not all shareholders will be feeling jubilant, since the share price is still down a very disappointing 31% in the last twelve months.

In spite of the firm bounce in price, Nuode New MaterialsLtd's price-to-sales (or "P/S") ratio of 1.5x might still make it look like a buy right now compared to the Electrical industry in China, where around half of the companies have P/S ratios above 2.4x and even P/S above 5x are quite common. Although, it's not wise to just take the P/S at face value as there may be an explanation why it's limited.

What Does Nuode New MaterialsLtd's P/S Mean For Shareholders?

Nuode New MaterialsLtd could be doing better as its revenue has been going backwards lately while most other companies have been seeing positive revenue growth. Perhaps the P/S remains low as investors think the prospects of strong revenue growth aren't on the horizon. If you still like the company, you'd be hoping this isn't the case so that you could potentially pick up some stock while it's out of favour.

Keen to find out how analysts think Nuode New MaterialsLtd's future stacks up against the industry? In that case, our free report is a great place to start.

Do Revenue Forecasts Match The Low P/S Ratio?

In order to justify its P/S ratio, Nuode New MaterialsLtd would need to produce sluggish growth that's trailing the industry.

Taking a look back first, we see that there was hardly any revenue growth to speak of for the company over the past year. Although pleasingly revenue has lifted 42% in aggregate from three years ago, notwithstanding the last 12 months. So while the company has done a solid job in the past, it's somewhat concerning to see revenue growth decline as much as it has.

Turning to the outlook, the next year should generate growth of 32% as estimated by the sole analyst watching the company. That's shaping up to be materially higher than the 23% growth forecast for the broader industry.

With this in consideration, we find it intriguing that Nuode New MaterialsLtd's P/S sits behind most of its industry peers. It looks like most investors are not convinced at all that the company can achieve future growth expectations.

The Key Takeaway

Nuode New MaterialsLtd's stock price has surged recently, but its but its P/S still remains modest. We'd say the price-to-sales ratio's power isn't primarily as a valuation instrument but rather to gauge current investor sentiment and future expectations.

To us, it seems Nuode New MaterialsLtd currently trades on a significantly depressed P/S given its forecasted revenue growth is higher than the rest of its industry. There could be some major risk factors that are placing downward pressure on the P/S ratio. It appears the market could be anticipating revenue instability, because these conditions should normally provide a boost to the share price.
