Ltd. (HKG:2869) shareholders should be happy to see the share price up 12% in the last quarter.    But that doesn't change the fact that the returns over the last three years have been disappointing.  In that time, the share price dropped 60%.  So it is really good to see an improvement.  After all, could be that the fall was overdone.      On a more encouraging note the company has added HK$538m to its market cap in just the last 7 days, so let's see if we can determine what's driven the three-year loss for shareholders.   Check out our latest analysis for Greentown Service Group   While markets are a powerful pricing mechanism, share prices reflect investor sentiment, not just underlying business performance.  One way to examine how market sentiment has changed over time is to look at the interaction between a company's share price and its earnings per share (EPS).   Greentown Service Group saw its EPS decline at a compound rate of 6.4% per year, over the last three years.   The share price decline of 26% is actually steeper than the EPS slippage.  So it seems the market was too confident about the business, in the past.   The company's earnings per share (over time) is depicted in the image below (click to see the exact numbers). SEHK:2869 Earnings Per Share Growth July 18th 2024 We know that Greentown Service Group has improved its bottom line lately, but is it going to grow revenue?  This free report showing analyst revenue forecasts should help you figure out if the EPS growth can be sustained.   What About Dividends? As well as measuring the share price return, investors should also consider the total shareholder return (TSR).  The TSR is a return calculation that accounts for the value of cash dividends (assuming that any dividend received was reinvested) and the calculated value of any discounted capital raisings and spin-offs.  It's fair to say that the TSR gives a more complete picture for stocks that pay a dividend.  In the case of Greentown Service Group, it has a TSR of -56% for the last 3 years. That exceeds its share price return that we previously mentioned.  This is largely a result of its dividend payments!  A Different Perspective Greentown Service Group shareholders are down 0.8% for the year (even including dividends), but the market itself is up 6.0%.  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.    However, the loss over the last year isn't as bad as the 7% per annum loss investors have suffered over the last half decade.  We'd need to see some sustained improvements in the key metrics before we could muster much enthusiasm.       While it is well worth considering the different impacts that market conditions can have on the share price, there are other factors that are even more important.
