Given that GOME Retail Holdings 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.
GOME Retail Holdings actually shrunk its revenue over the last year, with a reduction of 7.6%. The stock is up 57% in that time, a fine performance given the revenue drop. We can correlate the share price rise with revenue or profit growth, but it seems the market had previously expected weaker results, and sentiment around the stock is improving.

What about the Total Shareholder Return (TSR)?
We've already covered GOME Retail Holdings' share price action, but we should also mention its total shareholder return (TSR). The TSR attempts to capture the value of dividends (as if they were reinvested) as well as any spin-offs or discounted capital raisings offered to shareholders. Its history of dividend payouts mean that GOME Retail Holdings' TSR of 57% over the last year is better than the share price return.
A Different Perspective
We're pleased to report that GOME Retail Holdings shareholders have received a total shareholder return of 57% over one year. That certainly beats the loss of about 2.2% per year over the last half decade. We generally put more weight on the long term performance over the short term, but the recent improvement could hint at a (positive) inflection point within the business. It's always interesting to track share price performance over the longer term. But to understand GOME Retail Holdings better, we need to consider many other factors.
