But that doesn't change the fact that the returns over the last five years have been less than pleasing.  After all, the share price is down 50% in that time, significantly under-performing the market.      Now let's have a look at the company's fundamentals, and see if the long term shareholder return has matched the performance of the underlying business.   See our latest analysis for China Everbright Environment Group   In his essay The Superinvestors of Graham-and-Doddsville Warren Buffett described how share prices do not always rationally reflect the value of a business.  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.   Looking back five years, both China Everbright Environment Group's share price and EPS declined; the latter at a rate of 3.4% per year.   This reduction in EPS is less than the 13% annual reduction in the share price.  This implies that the market is more cautious about the business these days.   The low P/E ratio of 5.02 further reflects this reticence.    The company's earnings per share (over time) is depicted in the image below (click to see the exact numbers). SEHK:257 Earnings Per Share Growth June 11th 2024 Dive deeper into China Everbright Environment Group's key metrics by checking this interactive graph of China Everbright Environment Group's earnings, revenue and cash flow.  What About Dividends? It is important to consider the total shareholder return, as well as the share price return, for any given stock.  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.  It's fair to say that the TSR gives a more complete picture for stocks that pay a dividend.  We note that for China Everbright Environment Group the TSR over the last 5 years was -33%, which is better than the share price return mentioned above.  The dividends paid by the company have thusly boosted the total shareholder return.  A Different Perspective It's good to see that China Everbright Environment Group has rewarded shareholders with a total shareholder return of 21% in the last twelve months.   And that does include the dividend.     That certainly beats the loss of about 6% per year over the last half decade.  This makes us a little wary, but the business might have turned around its fortunes.        I find it very interesting to look at share price over the long term as a proxy for business performance.
