Why Investors Shouldn't Be Surprised By Trendzon Holdings Group Limited's (HKG:1865) 58% Share Price Surge
Trendzon Holdings Group Limited (HKG:1865) shares have had a really impressive month, gaining 58% after a shaky period beforehand. Unfortunately, the gains of the last month did little to right the losses of the last year with the stock still down 49% over that time.
Even after such a large jump in price, you could still be forgiven for feeling indifferent about Trendzon Holdings Group's P/S ratio of 0.1x, since the median price-to-sales (or "P/S") ratio for the Construction industry in Hong Kong is also close to 0.3x. Although, it's not wise to simply ignore the P/S without explanation as investors may be disregarding a distinct opportunity or a costly mistake.

How Trendzon Holdings Group Has Been Performing
As an illustration, revenue has deteriorated at Trendzon Holdings Group over the last year, which is not ideal at all. Perhaps investors believe the recent revenue performance is enough to keep in line with the industry, which is keeping the P/S from dropping off.

There's an inherent assumption that a company should be matching the industry for P/S ratios like Trendzon Holdings Group's to be considered reasonable.
Retrospectively, the last year delivered a frustrating 1.1% decrease to the company's top line. Even so, admirably revenue has lifted 36% in aggregate from three years ago, notwithstanding the last 12 months. Although it's been a bumpy ride, it's still fair to say the revenue growth recently has been more than adequate for the company.
Comparing that to the industry, which is predicted to deliver 10% growth in the next 12 months, the company's momentum is pretty similar based on recent medium-term annualised revenue results.
With this information, we can see why Trendzon Holdings Group is trading at a fairly similar P/S to the industry. It seems most investors are expecting to see average growth rates continue into the future and are only willing to pay a moderate amount for the stock.
The Bottom Line On Trendzon Holdings Group's P/S

It appears to us that Trendzon Holdings Group maintains its moderate P/S off the back of its recent three-year growth being in line with the wider industry forecast. With previous revenue trends that keep up with the current industry outlook, it's hard to justify the company's P/S ratio deviating much from it's current point. Unless the recent medium-term conditions change, they will continue to support the share price at these levels.
