It hasn't been the best quarter for DoubleUGames Co., Ltd. (KRX:192080) shareholders, since the share price has fallen 15% in that time. Looking on the brighter side, the stock is actually up over twelve months. But to be blunt its return of 24% fall short of what you could have got from an index fund (around 44%).

While markets are a powerful pricing mechanism, share prices reflect investor sentiment, not just underlying business performance. One flawed but reasonable way to assess how sentiment around a company has changed is to compare the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price.
During the last year DoubleUGames grew its earnings per share (EPS) by 1.4%. This EPS growth is significantly lower than the 24% increase in the share price. This indicates that the market is now more optimistic about the stock.
