FTB Turizam d.d's(ZGSE:LRHC) Share Price Is Down 23% Over The Past Three Years.

While it may not be enough for some shareholders, we think it is good to see the FTB Turizam d.d. (ZGSE:LRHC) share price up 15% in a single quarter. But that doesn't help the fact that the three year return is less impressive. After all, the share price is down 23% in the last three years, significantly under-performing the market.

FTB Turizam d.d wasn't profitable in the last twelve months, it is unlikely we'll see a strong correlation between its share price and its earnings per share (EPS). Arguably revenue is our next best option. Shareholders of unprofitable companies usually expect strong revenue growth. Some companies are willing to postpone profitability to grow revenue faster, but in that case one does expect good top-line growth.

In the last three years FTB Turizam d.d saw its revenue shrink by 14% per year. That is not a good result. The annual decline of 7% per year in that period has clearly disappointed holders. That makes sense given the lack of either profits or revenue growth. Of course, sentiment could become too negative, and the company may actually be making progress to profitability.

A Different Perspective

FTB Turizam d.d shareholders are down 20% for the year, falling short of the market return. The market shed around 6.7%, no doubt weighing on the stock price. Shareholders have lost 7% per year over the last three years, so the share price drop has become steeper, over the last year; a potential symptom of as yet unsolved challenges. We would be wary of buying into a company with unsolved problems, although some investors will buy into struggling stocks if they believe the price is sufficiently attractive. I find it very interesting to look at share price over the long term as a proxy for business performance. But to truly gain insight, we need to consider other information, too.
