Take Care Before Jumping Onto Global Mofy Metaverse Limited (NASDAQ:GMM) Even Though It's 47% Cheaper

Unfortunately for some shareholders, the Global Mofy Metaverse Limited (NASDAQ:GMM) share price has dived 47% in the last thirty days, prolonging recent pain. Longer-term shareholders will rue the drop in the share price, since it's now virtually flat for the year after a promising few quarters.

Although its price has dipped substantially, it's still not a stretch to say that Global Mofy Metaverse's price-to-sales (or "P/S") ratio of 1.1x right now seems quite "middle-of-the-road" compared to the Entertainment industry in the United States, where the median P/S ratio is around 1.3x. Although, it's not wise to simply ignore the P/S without explanation as investors may be disregarding a distinct opportunity or a costly mistake.

What Does Global Mofy Metaverse's Recent Performance Look Like?

With revenue growth that's exceedingly strong of late, Global Mofy Metaverse has been doing very well. Perhaps the market is expecting future revenue performance to taper off, which has kept the P/S from rising. If you like the company, you'd be hoping this isn't the case so that you could potentially pick up some stock while it's not quite in favour.

Is There Some Revenue Growth Forecasted For Global Mofy Metaverse?

The only time you'd be comfortable seeing a P/S like Global Mofy Metaverse's is when the company's growth is tracking the industry closely.

Retrospectively, the last year delivered an exceptional 56% gain to the company's top line. This great performance means it was also able to deliver immense revenue growth over the last three years. Accordingly, shareholders would have been over the moon with those medium-term rates of revenue growth.

Comparing that to the industry, which is only predicted to deliver 11% growth in the next 12 months, the company's momentum is stronger based on recent medium-term annualised revenue results.

In light of this, it's curious that Global Mofy Metaverse's P/S sits in line with the majority of other companies. It may be that most investors are not convinced the company can maintain its recent growth rates.

The Final Word

Following Global Mofy Metaverse's share price tumble, its P/S is just clinging on to the industry median P/S. Generally, our preference is to limit the use of the price-to-sales ratio to establishing what the market thinks about the overall health of a company.

We've established that Global Mofy Metaverse currently trades on a lower than expected P/S since its recent three-year growth is higher than the wider industry forecast. It'd be fair to assume that potential risks the company faces could be the contributing factor to the lower than expected P/S. At least the risk of a price drop looks to be subdued if recent medium-term revenue trends continue, but investors seem to think future revenue could see some volatility.
