Of course the real question is whether the business can sustain a turnaround. We really feel for shareholders in this scenario. It's a good reminder of the importance of diversification, and it's worth keeping in mind there's more to life than money, anyway. \n While the last three years has been tough for Argo Blockchain 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. \n Check out our latest analysis for Argo Blockchain \n Argo Blockchain isn't currently profitable, so most analysts would look to revenue growth to get an idea of how fast the underlying business is growing. Shareholders of unprofitable companies usually desire strong revenue growth. Some companies are willing to postpone profitability to grow revenue faster, but in that case one would hope for good top-line growth to make up for the lack of earnings. \n Over the last three years, Argo Blockchain's revenue dropped 10% per year. That's not what investors generally want to see. Having said that the 23% annualized share price decline highlights the risk of investing in unprofitable companies. We're generally averse to companies with declining revenues, but we're not alone in that. There's no more than a snowball's chance in hell that share price will head back to its old highs, in the short term. \n The graphic below depicts how earnings and revenue have changed over time (unveil the exact values by clicking on the image). \n\n\n\n  LSE:ARB Earnings and Revenue Growth July 17th 2024\n \n\n Balance sheet strength is crucial. It might be well worthwhile taking a look at our free report on how its financial position has changed over time. \nA Different Perspective\n Argo Blockchain shareholders are down 26% for the year, but the market itself is up 13%. 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. Longer term investors wouldn't be so upset, since they would have made 10%, each year, over five years. If the fundamental data continues to indicate long term sustainable growth, the current sell-off could be an opportunity worth considering. It's always interesting to track share price performance over the longer term. But to understand Argo Blockchain better, we need to consider many other factors.
