Mohenz.Co.,Ltd. (KOSDAQ:006920) shareholders should be happy to see the share price up 19% in the last quarter. But that cannot eclipse the less-than-impressive returns over the last three years. Truth be told the share price declined 13% in three years and that return, Dear Reader, falls short of what you could have got from passive investing with an index fund.

While Mohenz.Co.Ltd made a small profit, in the last year, we think that the market is probably more focussed on the top line growth at the moment. Generally speaking, we'd consider a stock like this alongside loss-making companies, simply because the quantum of the profit is so low. It would be hard to believe in a more profitable future without growing revenues.

Over the last three years, Mohenz.Co.Ltd's revenue dropped 16% per year. That means its revenue trend is very weak compared to other loss making companies. On the face of it we'd posit the share price fall of 4% compound, over three years is well justified by the fundamental deterioration. The key question now is whether the company has the capacity to fund itself to profitability, without more cash. Of course, it is possible for businesses to bounce back from a revenue drop - but we'd want to see that before getting interested.

A Different Perspective

Investors in Mohenz.Co.Ltd had a tough year, with a total loss of 2.9%, against a market gain of about 32%. Even the share prices of good stocks drop sometimes, but we want to see improvements in the fundamental metrics of a business, before getting too interested. Unfortunately, last year's performance may indicate unresolved challenges, given that it was worse than the annualised loss of 1.3% over the last half decade. Generally speaking long term share price weakness can be a bad sign, though contrarian investors might want to research the stock in hope of a turnaround. 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.
