The DAEYANG ELECTRIC.Co.Ltd (KOSDAQ:108380) Share Price Is Up 24% And Shareholders Are Holding On

DAEYANG ELECTRIC.Co.,Ltd. (KOSDAQ:108380) shareholders have seen the share price descend 14% over the month. On the bright side the share price is up over the last half decade. However we are not very impressed because the share price is only up 24%, less than the market return of 51%.

Check out our latest analysis for DAEYANG ELECTRIC.Co.Ltd

There is no denying that markets are sometimes efficient, but prices do not always reflect underlying business performance. One way to examine how market sentiment has changed over time is to look at the interaction between a company's share price and its earnings per share (EPS).

During five years of share price growth, DAEYANG ELECTRIC.Co.Ltd actually saw its EPS drop 8.9% per year.

The strong decline in earnings per share suggests the market isn't using EPS to judge the company. Given that EPS is down, but the share price is up, it seems clear the market is focussed on other aspects of the business, at the moment.

We doubt the modest 1.4% dividend yield is attracting many buyers to the stock. The revenue growth of 0.3% per year hardly seems impressive. So why is the share price up? It's not immediately obvious to us, but a closer look at the company's progress over time might yield answers.
