Investors Who Bought Admie Holding (ATH:ADMIE) Shares A Year Ago Are Now Up 33%

These days it's easy to simply buy an index fund, and your returns should (roughly) match the market. But you can significantly boost your returns by picking above-average stocks. For example, the Admie Holding S.A. (ATH:ADMIE) share price is up 33% in the last year, clearly besting the market return of around 18% (not including dividends). So that should have shareholders smiling. Note that businesses generally develop over the long term, so the returns over the last year might not reflect a long term trend.

To paraphrase Benjamin Graham: Over the short term the market is a voting machine, but over the long term it's a weighing machine. One imperfect but simple way to consider how the market perception of a company has shifted is to compare the change in the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price movement.

What about the Total Shareholder Return (TSR)?

We'd be remiss not to mention the difference between Admie Holding's total shareholder return (TSR) and its share price return. The TSR is a return calculation that accounts for the value of cash dividends (assuming that any dividend received was reinvested) and the calculated value of any discounted capital raisings and spin-offs. Admie Holding hasn't been paying dividends, but its TSR of 38% exceeds its share price return of 33%, implying it has either spun-off a business, or raised capital at a discount; thereby providing additional value to shareholders.

A Different Perspective

Admie Holding boasts a total shareholder return of 38% for the last year. A substantial portion of that gain has come in the last three months, with the stock up 8.7% in that time. Demand for the stock from multiple parties is pushing the price higher; it could be that word is getting out about its virtues as a business.
