The K&K Herbal Poland (WSE:KKH) Share Price Has Gained 43% And Shareholders Are Hoping For More
The simplest way to invest in stocks is to buy exchange traded funds. But you can significantly boost your returns by picking above-average stocks. For example, the K&K Herbal Poland S.A. (WSE:KKH) share price is up 43% in the last year, clearly besting the market return of around -1.6% (not including dividends). So that should have shareholders smiling. In contrast, the longer term returns are negative, since the share price is 29% lower than it was three years ago.

K&K Herbal Poland recorded just zł1,777,920 in revenue over the last twelve months, which isn't really enough for us to consider it to have a proven product. So it seems that the investors focused more on what could be, than paying attention to the current revenues (or lack thereof). Investors will be hoping that K&K Herbal Poland can make progress and gain better traction for the business, before it runs low on cash.
We think companies that have neither significant revenues nor profits are pretty high risk. You should be aware that there is always a chance that this sort of company will need to issue more shares to raise money to continue pursuing its business plan. While some companies like this go on to deliver on their plan, making good money for shareholders, many end in painful losses and eventual de-listing.
K&K Herbal Poland had cash in excess of all liabilities of just zł252k when it last reported (June 2019). So if it has not already moved to replenish reserves, we think the near-term chances of a capital raising event are pretty high. It's a testament to the popularity of the business plan that the share price gained 130% in the last year , despite the weak balance sheet.

In reality it's hard to have much certainty when valuing a business that has neither revenue or profit. Given that situation, many of the best investors like to check if insiders have been buying shares. It's often positive if so, assuming the buying is sustained and meaningful. Luckily we are in a position to provide you with this free chart of insider buying (and selling).
A Different Perspective
It's nice to see that K&K Herbal Poland shareholders have received a total shareholder return of 43% over the last year. Notably the five-year annualised TSR loss of 7.2% per year compares very unfavourably with the recent share price performance. The long term loss makes us cautious, but the short term TSR gain certainly hints at a brighter future. You might want to assess this data-rich visualization of its earnings, revenue and cash flow.
