Did Nvoi Limited's (ASX:NVO) Earnings Growth Outperform The Industry?
In this commentary, I will examine Nvoi Limited's (ASX:NVO) latest earnings update (30 June 2017) and compare these figures against its performance over the past couple of years, as well as how the rest of the internet software and services industry performed. As an investor, I find it beneficial to assess NVO’s trend over the short-to-medium term in order to gauge whether or not the company is able to meet its goals, and ultimately sustainably grow over time.

Were NVO's earnings stronger than its past performances and the industry?
I like to use the ‘latest twelve-month’ data, which annualizes the most recent half-year data, or in some cases, the latest annual report is already the most recent financial year data. This technique allows me to assess many different companies on a similar basis, using the latest information. For Nvoi, its latest trailing-twelve-month earnings is -A$4.3M, which compared to the prior year's level, has become less negative. Given that these figures are relatively short-term, I’ve calculated an annualized five-year value for NVO's earnings, which stands at -A$4.2M. This shows that, Nvoi has historically performed better than recently, though it seems like earnings are now heading back towards to right direction again.
What does this mean?
Though Nvoi's past data is helpful, it is only one aspect of my investment thesis. Companies that incur net loss is always difficult to predict what will happen in the future and when. The most useful step is to assess company-specific issues Nvoi may be facing and whether management guidance has dependably been met in the past.
