Just think about the savvy investors who held Parsvnath Developers Limited (NSE:PARSVNATH) shares for the last five years, while they gained 561%. And this is just one example of the epic gains achieved by some long term investors. It's also good to see the share price up 46% over the last quarter. This could be related to the recent financial results, released recently - you can catch up on the most recent data by reading our company report. It really delights us to see such great share price performance for investors.
Since the stock has added ₹1.2b to its market cap in the past week alone, let's see if underlying performance has been driving long-term returns.
Check out our latest analysis for Parsvnath Developers
Given that Parsvnath Developers didn't make a profit in the last twelve months, we'll focus on revenue growth to form a quick view of its business development. When a company doesn't make profits, we'd generally hope to see good revenue growth. That's because it's hard to be confident a company will be sustainable if revenue growth is negligible, and it never makes a profit.
Over the last half decade Parsvnath Developers' revenue has actually been trending down at about 14% per year. So it's pretty surprising to see that the share price is up 46% per year. Obviously, whatever the market is excited about, it's not a track record of revenue growth. At the risk of upsetting holders, this does suggest that hope for a better future is playing a significant role in the share price action.

A Different Perspective
It's nice to see that Parsvnath Developers shareholders have received a total shareholder return of 120% over the last year. That gain is better than the annual TSR over five years, which is 46%. Therefore it seems like sentiment around the company has been positive lately. Someone with an optimistic perspective could view the recent improvement in TSR as indicating that the business itself is getting better with time. While it is well worth considering the different impacts that market conditions can have on the share price, there are other factors that are even more important.
