While IBEX Limited (NASDAQ:IBEX) shareholders are probably generally happy, the stock hasn’t had particularly good run recently, with the share price falling 13% in the last quarter. But that doesn’t change the fact that the returns over the last year have been respectable. Indeed the stock is up 19.7% over twelve months, compared to a market return of about 37.50%.
So let’s investigate and see if the longer term performance of the company has been in line with the underlying business’ progress.
IBEX 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 expect strong revenue growth. That’s because fast revenue growth can be easily extrapolated to forecast profits, often of considerable size.
IBEX grew its revenue by 11% last year. That’s not great considering the company is losing money. The modest growth is probably largely reflected in the share price, which is up 35%. While not a huge gain tht seems pretty reasonable. Given the market doesn’t seem too excited about the stock, a closer look at the financial data could pay off, if you can find indications of a stronger growth trend in the future.
The company’s revenue and earnings (over time) are depicted in the image below.
