Interested In Public Joint Stock Company Uralkali (MCX:URKA)? Here's What Its Recent Performance Looks Like
After looking at Public Joint Stock Company Uralkali's (MISX:URKA) latest earnings announcement (30 June 2017), I found it useful to revisit the company's performance in the past couple of years and assess this against the most recent figures. As a long term investor, I pay close attention to earnings trend, rather than the figures published at one point in time. I also compare against an industry benchmark to check whether Uralkali's performance has been impacted by industry movements. In this article I briefly touch on my key findings.

Could URKA beat the long-term trend and outperform its industry?
For the most up-to-date info, I use the ‘latest twelve-month’ data, which annualizes the latest 6-month earnings release, or some times, the latest annual report is already the most recent financial data. This enables me to assess different companies on a similar basis, using the latest information. For Uralkali, its latest earnings (trailing twelve month) is US$943.36M, which, in comparison to the prior year's level, has risen by an impressive 67.80%. Since these values may be relatively short-term thinking, I’ve determined an annualized five-year figure for URKA's net income, which stands at US$729.73M This means generally, Uralkali has been able to steadily grow its earnings over the past few years as well.
What does this mean?
While past data is useful, it doesn’t tell the whole story. Companies that have performed well in the past, such as Uralkali gives investors conviction.
