Taking a wider view, although not as strong as the last month, the full year gain of 19% is also fairly reasonable.    Since its price has surged higher, given close to half the companies in Hong Kong have price-to-earnings ratios (or \"P/E's\") below 9x, you may consider Kingboard Laminates Holdings as a stock to avoid entirely with its 29.3x P/E ratio.  However, the P/E might be quite high for a reason and it requires further investigation to determine if it's justified.     Kingboard Laminates Holdings could be doing better as its earnings have been going backwards lately while most other companies have been seeing positive earnings growth.   It might be that many expect the dour earnings performance to recover substantially, which has kept the P/E from collapsing.  You'd really hope so, otherwise you're paying a pretty hefty price for no particular reason.

Does Growth Match The High P/E?   Kingboard Laminates Holdings' P/E ratio would be typical for a company that's expected to deliver very strong growth, and importantly, perform much better than the market.   If we review the last year of earnings, dishearteningly the company's profits fell to the tune of 52%.   The last three years don't look nice either as the company has shrunk EPS by 68% in aggregate.  So unfortunately, we have to acknowledge that the company has not done a great job of growing earnings over that time.     Shifting to the future, estimates from the three analysts covering the company suggest earnings should grow by 48% per annum over the next three years.  That's shaping up to be materially higher than the 16% each year growth forecast for the broader market.  In light of this, it's understandable that Kingboard Laminates Holdings' P/E sits above the majority of other companies.  It seems most investors are expecting this strong future growth and are willing to pay more for the stock.    The Final Word  Shares in Kingboard Laminates Holdings have built up some good momentum lately, which has really inflated its P/E.      Typically, we'd caution against reading too much into price-to-earnings ratios when settling on investment decisions, though it can reveal plenty about what other market participants think about the company.  As we suspected, our examination of Kingboard Laminates Holdings' analyst forecasts revealed that its superior earnings outlook is contributing to its high P/E.  Right now shareholders are comfortable with the P/E as they are quite confident future earnings aren't under threat.  It's hard to see the share price falling strongly in the near future under these circumstances.
