Artroniq Berhad isn't currently profitable, so most analysts would look to revenue growth to get an idea of how fast the underlying business is growing. When a company doesn't make profits, we'd generally expect to see good revenue growth. That's because it's hard to be confident a company will be sustainable if revenue growth is negligible, and it never makes a profit.

In the last 5 years Artroniq Berhad saw its revenue grow at 20% per year. Even measured against other revenue-focussed companies, that's a good result. Arguably, this is well and truly reflected in the strong share price gain of 42%(per year) over the same period. It's never too late to start following a top notch stock like Artroniq Berhad, since some long term winners go on winning for decades.
