Investors can approximate the average market return by buying an index fund. But if you buy individual stocks, you can do both better or worse than that. For example, the BK Brasil Operação e Assessoria a Restaurantes S.A. (BVMF:BKBR3) share price is down 41% in the last year. That contrasts poorly with the market return of 3.7%. We wouldn't rush to judgement on BK Brasil Operação e Assessoria a Restaurantes because we don't have a long term history to look at. The silver lining is that the stock is up 3.6% in about a week.

Because BK Brasil Operação e Assessoria a Restaurantes made a loss in the last twelve months, we think the market is probably more focussed on revenue and revenue growth, at least for now. Shareholders of unprofitable companies usually expect strong revenue growth. As you can imagine, fast revenue growth, when maintained, often leads to fast profit growth.

In just one year BK Brasil Operação e Assessoria a Restaurantes saw its revenue fall by 7.6%. That's not what investors generally want to see. The stock price has languished lately, falling 41% in a year. That seems pretty reasonable given the lack of both profits and revenue growth. It's hard to escape the conclusion that buyers must envision either growth down the track, cost cutting, or both.

A Different Perspective

While BK Brasil Operação e Assessoria a Restaurantes shareholders are down 41% for the year, the market itself is up 3.7%. However, keep in mind that even the best stocks will sometimes underperform the market over a twelve month period. With the stock down 8.6% over the last three months, the market doesn't seem to believe that the company has solved all its problems.
