Not Many Are Piling Into Remor Solar Polska S.A. (WSE:RSP) Just Yet

With a median price-to-earnings (or "P/E") ratio of close to 12x in Poland, you could be forgiven for feeling indifferent about Remor Solar Polska S.A.'s (WSE:RSP) P/E ratio of 13.6x. However, investors might be overlooking a clear opportunity or potential setback if there is no rational basis for the P/E.

Recent times have been quite advantageous for Remor Solar Polska as its earnings have been rising very briskly. It might be that many expect the strong earnings performance to wane, which has kept the P/E from rising. If that doesn't eventuate, then existing shareholders have reason to be feeling optimistic about the future direction of the share price.

Is There Some Growth For Remor Solar Polska?

Remor Solar Polska's P/E ratio would be typical for a company that's only expected to deliver moderate growth, and importantly, perform in line with the market.

If we review the last year of earnings growth, the company posted a terrific increase of 106%. However, the latest three year period hasn't been as great in aggregate as it didn't manage to provide any growth at all. So it appears to us that the company has had a mixed result in terms of growing earnings over that time.

In contrast to the company, the rest of the market is expected to decline by 6.1% over the next year, which puts the company's recent medium-term positive growth rates in a good light for now.

With this information, we find it odd that Remor Solar Polska is trading at a fairly similar P/E to the market. It looks like most investors are not convinced the company can maintain its recent positive growth rate in the face of a shrinking broader market.

The Final Word

Typically, we'd caution against reading too much into price-to-earnings ratios when settling on investment decisions, though it can reveal plenty about what other market participants think about the company.

We've established that Remor Solar Polska currently trades on a lower than expected P/E since its recent three-year earnings growth is beating forecasts for a struggling market. There could be some unobserved threats to earnings preventing the P/E ratio from matching this positive performance. One major risk is whether its earnings trajectory can keep outperforming under these tough market conditions. It appears some are indeed anticipating earnings instability, because this relative performance should normally provide a boost to the share price.
