While Toyo Ventures Holdings Berhad 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. As a general rule, we think this kind of company is more comparable to loss-making stocks, since the actual profit is so low. For shareholders to have confidence a company will grow profits significantly, it must grow revenue.
Over the last half decade Toyo Ventures Holdings Berhad's revenue has actually been trending down at about 0.6% per year. This is in stark contrast to the strong share price growth of 39%, compound, per year. Obviously, whatever the market is excited about, it's not a track record of revenue growth. At the risk of upsetting holders, this does suggest that hope for a better future is playing a significant role in the share price action.

What About Dividends?
It is important to consider the total shareholder return, as well as the share price return, for any given stock.

Arguably, the TSR gives a more comprehensive picture of the return generated by a stock. As it happens, Toyo Ventures Holdings Berhad's TSR for the last 5 years was 457%, which exceeds the share price return mentioned earlier. This is largely a result of its dividend payments!
