While B+S Banksysteme made a small profit, in the last year, we think that the market is probably more focussed on the top line growth at the moment. As a general rule, if the market is looking past earnings to focus on revenue, there is a hope for, or expectation of, strong growth. The main reason for this is that fast revenue growth can be readily extrapolated into a profitable future, but stagnant revenue cannot.
In the last 5 years B+S Banksysteme saw its revenue grow at 8.2% per year. That's a fairly respectable growth rate. We'd argue this growth has been reflected in the share price which has climbed at a rate of 25% per year over in that time. Given that the business has made good progress on the top line, it would be worth taking a look at the growth trend. Accelerating growth can be a sign of an inflection point - and could indicate profits lie ahead. Worth watching 100%

A Different Perspective
While the broader market lost about 7.1% in the twelve months, B+S Banksysteme shareholders did even worse, losing 38%. Having said that, it's inevitable that some stocks will be oversold in a falling market. The key is to keep your eyes on the fundamental developments. Longer term investors wouldn't be so upset, since they would have made 25%, each year, over five years. It could be that the recent sell-off is an opportunity, so it may be worth checking the fundamental data for signs of a long term growth trend.
