Can You Imagine How Elated Samkang M&TLtd's (KOSDAQ:100090) Shareholders Feel About Its 368% Share Price Gain?

Samkang M&T Co.,Ltd (KOSDAQ:100090) shareholders have seen the share price descend 13% over the month. But that isn't a problem when you consider how the share price has soared over the last year. Few could complain about the impressive 368% rise, throughout the period. So the recent fall isn't enough to negate the good performance. The real question is whether the fundamental business performance can justify the strong increase over the long term.

Given that Samkang M&TLtd only made minimal earnings in the last twelve months, we'll focus on revenue to gauge its business development. Generally speaking, we'd consider a stock like this alongside loss-making companies, simply because the quantum of the profit is so low. For shareholders to have confidence a company will grow profits significantly, it must grow revenue.

Over the last twelve months, Samkang M&TLtd's revenue grew by 52%. That's a head and shoulders above most loss-making companies. But the share price has really rocketed in response gaining 368% as previously mentioned. Despite the strong growth, it's certainly possible the market has gotten a little over-excited. So this looks like a great watchlist candidate for investors who look for high growth inflexion points.
