But in any portfolio, there are likely to be some stocks that fall short of that benchmark. We regret to report that long term Wing Tai Holdings Limited (SGX:W05) shareholders have had that experience, with the share price dropping 35% in three years, versus a market return of about 15%. \n Since shareholders are down over the longer term, lets look at the underlying fundamentals over the that time and see if they've been consistent with returns. \n View our latest analysis for Wing Tai Holdings \n We don't think that Wing Tai Holdings' modest trailing twelve month profit has the market's full attention at the moment. We think revenue is probably a better guide. Generally speaking, we'd consider a stock like this alongside loss-making companies, simply because the quantum of the profit is so low. For shareholders to have confidence a company will grow profits significantly, it must grow revenue. \n Over three years, Wing Tai Holdings grew revenue at 6.3% per year. Given it's losing money in pursuit of growth, we are not really impressed with that. Indeed, the stock dropped 11% over the last three years. Shareholders will probably be hoping growth picks up soon. But ultimately the key will be whether the company can become profitability. \n You can see how earnings and revenue have changed over time in the image below (click on the chart to see the exact values). \n\n\n\n  SGX:W05 Earnings and Revenue Growth January 4th 2024\n \n\n If you are thinking of buying or selling Wing Tai Holdings stock, you should check out this FREE detailed report on its balance sheet. \nWhat About Dividends?\n As well as measuring the share price return, investors should also consider the total shareholder return (TSR). The TSR incorporates the value of any spin-offs or discounted capital raisings, along with any dividends, based on the assumption that the dividends are reinvested. So for companies that pay a generous dividend, the TSR is often a lot higher than the share price return. As it happens, Wing Tai Holdings' TSR for the last 3 years was -28%, which exceeds the share price return mentioned earlier. The dividends paid by the company have thusly boosted the total shareholder return. \nA Different Perspective\n Wing Tai Holdings shareholders are down 9.5% for the year (even including dividends), but the market itself is up 2.2%. Even the share prices of good stocks drop sometimes, but we want to see improvements in the fundamental metrics of a business, before getting too interested. Unfortunately, last year's performance may indicate unresolved challenges, given that it was worse than the annualised loss of 4% over the last half decade. Generally speaking long term share price weakness can be a bad sign, though contrarian investors might want to research the stock in hope of a turnaround. I find it very interesting to look at share price over the long term as a proxy for business performance. But to truly gain insight, we need to consider other information, too. To that end, you should learn about the  4 warning signs  we've spotted with Wing Tai Holdings (including 2 which shouldn't be ignored) . \n But note: Wing Tai Holdings may not be the best stock to buy.
