The THINKWARE (KOSDAQ:084730) Share Price Has Gained 64% And Shareholders Are Hoping For More

These days it's easy to simply buy an index fund, and your returns should (roughly) match the market. But one can do better than that by picking better than average stocks (as part of a diversified portfolio). To wit, the THINKWARE Corporation (KOSDAQ:084730) share price is 64% higher than it was a year ago, much better than the market return of around 29% (not including dividends) in the same period. If it can keep that out-performance up over the long term, investors will do very well! However, the stock hasn't done so well in the longer term, with the stock only up 14% in three years.

In his essay The Superinvestors of Graham-and-Doddsville Warren Buffett described how share prices do not always rationally reflect the value of a business. By comparing earnings per share (EPS) and share price changes over time, we can get a feel for how investor attitudes to a company have morphed over time.

THINKWARE was able to grow EPS by 239% in the last twelve months. It's fair to say that the share price gain of 64% did not keep pace with the EPS growth. Therefore, it seems the market isn't as excited about THINKWARE as it was before. This could be an opportunity.

A Different Perspective

It's good to see that THINKWARE has rewarded shareholders with a total shareholder return of 64% in the last twelve months. That's better than the annualised return of 1.6% over half a decade, implying that the company is doing better recently. In the best case scenario, this may hint at some real business momentum, implying that now could be a great time to delve deeper. 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.
