While the last three years has been tough for First Ship Lease Trust shareholders, this past week has shown signs of promise. So let's look at the longer term fundamentals and see if they've been the driver of the negative returns.   Check out our latest analysis for First Ship Lease Trust   To quote Buffett, 'Ships will sail around the world but the Flat Earth Society will flourish. There will continue to be wide discrepancies between price and value in the marketplace...'  By comparing earnings per share (EPS) and share price changes over time, we can get a feel for how investor attitudes to a company have morphed over time.   First Ship Lease Trust saw its EPS decline at a compound rate of 16% per year, over the last three years.    This fall in EPS isn't far from the rate of share price decline, which was 20% per year.   So it seems like sentiment towards the stock hasn't changed all that much over time.  Rather, the share price has approximately tracked EPS growth.

SGX:D8DU Earnings Per Share Growth June 3rd 2024 This free interactive report on First Ship Lease Trust's earnings, revenue and cash flow is a great place to start, if you want to investigate the stock further.   What About Dividends? 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.  It's fair to say that the TSR gives a more complete picture for stocks that pay a dividend.  We note that for First Ship Lease Trust the TSR over the last 3 years was 29%, which is better than the share price return mentioned above.  This is largely a result of its dividend payments!  A Different Perspective While the broader market gained around 6.2% in the last year, First Ship Lease Trust shareholders lost 19% (even including dividends).  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.     On the bright side, long term shareholders have made money, with a gain of 40% per year over half a decade.  If the fundamental data continues to indicate long term sustainable growth, the current sell-off could be an opportunity worth considering.        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.   Consider for instance, the ever-present spectre of investment risk.
