Introducing Yieh Hsing Enterprise (TPE:2007), The Stock That Zoomed 113% In The Last Year
The most you can lose on any stock (assuming you don't use leverage) is 100% of your money. But if you pick the right stock, you can make a lot more than 100%. Take, for example Yieh Hsing Enterprise Co., Ltd. (TPE:2007). Its share price is already up an impressive 113% in the last twelve months. Also pleasing for shareholders was the 22% gain in the last three months. But this move may well have been assisted by the reasonably buoyant market (up 18% in 90 days). Also impressive, the stock is up 58% over three years, making long term shareholders happy, too.
Check out our latest analysis for Yieh Hsing Enterprise
Yieh Hsing Enterprise wasn't profitable in the last twelve months, it is unlikely we'll see a strong correlation between its share price and its earnings per share (EPS). Arguably revenue is our next best option. When a company doesn't make profits, we'd generally expect to see good revenue growth. That's because fast revenue growth can be easily extrapolated to forecast profits, often of considerable size.
In the last year Yieh Hsing Enterprise saw its revenue shrink by 23%. We're a little surprised to see the share price pop 113% in the last year. It just goes to show the market doesn't always pay attention to the reported numbers. Of course, it could be that the market expected this revenue drop.

A Different Perspective
It's good to see that Yieh Hsing Enterprise has rewarded shareholders with a total shareholder return of 113% in the last twelve months. Since the one-year TSR is better than the five-year TSR (the latter coming in at 8% per year), it would seem that the stock's performance has improved in recent times. Given the share price momentum remains strong, it might be worth taking a closer look at the stock, lest you miss an opportunity. While it is well worth considering the different impacts that market conditions can have on the share price, there are other factors that are even more important.
