Shareholders Of Sino Horizon Holdings (TPE:2923) Must Be Happy With Their 88% Return
The main point of investing for the long term is to make money. But more than that, you probably want to see it rise more than the market average. But Sino Horizon Holdings Limited (TPE:2923) has fallen short of that second goal, with a share price rise of 59% over five years, which is below the market return. Zooming in, the stock is up a respectable 5.7% in the last year.
Check out our latest analysis for Sino Horizon Holdings
There is no denying that markets are sometimes efficient, but prices do not always reflect underlying business performance. One flawed but reasonable way to assess how sentiment around a company has changed is to compare the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price.
During five years of share price growth, Sino Horizon Holdings actually saw its EPS drop 40% per year. The impact of extraordinary items on earnings, in the last year, partially explain the diversion.
This means it's unlikely the market is judging the company based on earnings growth. Because earnings per share don't seem to match up with the share price, we'll take a look at other metrics instead.
In fact, the dividend has increased over time, which is a positive. Maybe dividend investors have helped support the share price.

What About Dividends?
As well as measuring the share price return, investors should also consider the total shareholder return (TSR). Whereas the share price return only reflects the change in the share price, the TSR includes the value of dividends (assuming they were reinvested) and the benefit of any discounted capital raising or spin-off. So for companies that pay a generous dividend, the TSR is often a lot higher than the share price return. We note that for Sino Horizon Holdings the TSR over the last 5 years was 88%, which is better than the share price return mentioned above. This is largely a result of its dividend payments!
A Different Perspective
Sino Horizon Holdings provided a TSR of 15% over the last twelve months. But that return falls short of the market. The silver lining is that the gain was actually better than the average annual return of 13% per year over five year. This could indicate that the company is winning over new investors, as it pursues its strategy. 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.
