Investing in Naim Holdings Berhad (KLSE:NAIM) three years ago would have delivered you a 58% gain

Naim Holdings Berhad (KLSE:NAIM) shareholders might be concerned after seeing the share price drop 14% in the last month. But over three years, the returns would have left most investors smiling To wit, the share price did better than an index fund, climbing 58% during that period. So let's assess the underlying fundamentals over the last 3 years and see if they've moved in lock-step with shareholder returns. AI is about to change healthcare. These 20 stocks are working on everything from early diagnostics to drug discovery. The best part - they are all under $10bn in marketcap - there is still time to get in early. 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. One imperfect but simple way to consider how the market perception of a company has shifted is to compare the change in the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price movement. During three years of share price growth, Naim Holdings Berhad moved from a loss to profitability. That would generally be considered a positive, so we'd expect the share price to be up. The company's earnings per share (over time) is depicted in the image below (click to see the exact numbers). Before buying or selling a stock, we always recommend a close examination of historic growth trends, available here. We regret to report that Naim Holdings Berhad shareholders are down 41% for the year. Unfortunately, that's worse than the broader market decline of 6.5%. However, it could simply be that the share price has been impacted by broader market jitters. It might be worth keeping an eye on the fundamentals, in case there's a good opportunity. On the bright side, long term shareholders have made money, with a gain of 4% per year over half a decade. It could be that the recent sell-off is an opportunity, so it may be worth checking the fundamental data for signs of a long term growth trend. 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. For example, we've discovered 1 warning sign for Naim Holdings Berhad that you should be aware of before investing here. We will like Naim Holdings Berhad better if we see some big insider buys. While we wait, check out this free list of undervalued stocks (mostly small caps) with considerable, recent, insider buying.

Tootsie Roll Industries (NYSE:TR) shareholders have earned a 4.3% CAGR over the last five years

When you buy and hold a stock for the long term, you definitely want it to provide a positive return. But more than that, you probably want to see it rise more than the market average. Unfortunately for shareholders, while the Tootsie Roll Industries, Inc. (NYSE:TR) share price is up 17% in the last five years, that's less than the market return. Zooming in, the stock is up a respectable 12% in the last year. So let's investigate and see if the longer term performance of the company has been in line with the underlying business' progress. We've found 21 US stocks that are forecast to pay a dividend yield of over 6% next year. See the full list for free. 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. One imperfect but simple way to consider how the market perception of a company has shifted is to compare the change in the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price movement. During five years of share price growth, Tootsie Roll Industries achieved compound earnings per share (EPS) growth of 7.0% per year. The EPS growth is more impressive than the yearly share price gain of 3% over the same period. So one could conclude that the broader market has become more cautious towards the stock. The graphic below depicts how EPS has changed over time (unveil the exact values by clicking on the image). Dive deeper into Tootsie Roll Industries' key metrics by checking this interactive graph of Tootsie Roll Industries's earnings, revenue and cash flow. 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. As it happens, Tootsie Roll Industries' TSR for the last 5 years was 24%, which exceeds the share price return mentioned earlier. And there's no prize for guessing that the dividend payments largely explain the divergence! Tootsie Roll Industries shareholders have received returns of 13% over twelve months (even including dividends), which isn't far from the general market return. That gain looks pretty satisfying, and it is even better than the five-year TSR of 4% per year. Even if the share price growth slows down from here, there's a good chance that this is business worth watching in the long term. Is Tootsie Roll Industries cheap compared to other companies? These 3 valuation measures might help you decide. But note: Tootsie Roll Industries may not be the best stock to buy. So take a peek at this free list of interesting companies with past earnings growth (and further growth forecast).

Investors in XMH Holdings (SGX:BQF) have seen incredible returns of 680% over the past three years

Generally speaking, investors are inspired to be stock pickers by the potential to find the big winners. Mistakes are inevitable, but a single top stock pick can cover any losses, and so much more. Take, for example, the XMH Holdings Ltd. (SGX:BQF) share price, which skyrocketed 571% over three years. It really delights us to see such great share price performance for investors. Let's take a look at the underlying fundamentals over the longer term, and see if they've been consistent with shareholders returns. AI is about to change healthcare. These 20 stocks are working on everything from early diagnostics to drug discovery. The best part - they are all under $10bn in marketcap - there is still time to get in early. 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. 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). During three years of share price growth, XMH Holdings achieved compound earnings per share growth of 144% per year. The average annual share price increase of 89% is actually lower than the EPS growth. Therefore, it seems the market has moderated its expectations for growth, somewhat. This cautious sentiment is reflected in its (fairly low) P/E ratio of 4.37. You can see below how EPS has changed over time (discover the exact values by clicking on the image). We like that insiders have been buying shares in the last twelve months. Having said that, most people consider earnings and revenue growth trends to be a more meaningful guide to the business. It might be well worthwhile taking a look at our free report on XMH Holdings' earnings, revenue and cash flow. 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 XMH Holdings the TSR over the last 3 years was 680%, which is better than the share price return mentioned above. This is largely a result of its dividend payments! It's nice to see that XMH Holdings shareholders have received a total shareholder return of 79% over the last year. That's including the dividend. That's better than the annualised return of 48% over half a decade, implying that the company is doing better recently. In the best case scenario, this may hint at some real business momentum, implying that now could be a great time to delve deeper. 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. Case in point: We've spotted 2 warning signs for XMH Holdings you should be aware of. If you like to buy stocks alongside management, then you might just love this free list of companies.

Investing in Cadence Design Systems (NASDAQ:CDNS) five years ago would have delivered you a 216% gain

When you buy shares in a company, it's worth keeping in mind the possibility that it could fail, and you could lose your money. But on the bright side, if you buy shares in a high quality company at the right price, you can gain well over 100%. One great example is Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:CDNS) which saw its share price drive 216% higher over five years. Also pleasing for shareholders was the 16% gain in the last three months. So let's investigate and see if the longer term performance of the company has been in line with the underlying business' progress. This technology could replace computers: discover the 20 stocks are working to make quantum computing a reality. 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. One flawed but reasonable way to assess how sentiment around a company has changed is to compare the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price. Over half a decade, Cadence Design Systems managed to grow its earnings per share at 1.8% a year. This EPS growth is slower than the share price growth of 26% per year, over the same period. So it's fair to assume the market has a higher opinion of the business than it did five years ago. And that's hardly shocking given the track record of growth. This optimism is visible in its fairly high P/E ratio of 75.49. The graphic below depicts how EPS has changed over time (unveil the exact values by clicking on the image). This free interactive report on Cadence Design Systems' earnings, revenue and cash flow is a great place to start, if you want to investigate the stock further. Investors in Cadence Design Systems had a tough year, with a total loss of 8.4%, against a market gain of about 11%. However, keep in mind that even the best stocks will sometimes underperform the market over a twelve month period. Longer term investors wouldn't be so upset, since they would have made 26%, each year, over five years. It could be that the recent sell-off is an opportunity, so it may be worth checking the fundamental data for signs of a long term growth trend. If you would like to research Cadence Design Systems in more detail then you might want to take a look at whether insiders have been buying or selling shares in the company. But note: Cadence Design Systems may not be the best stock to buy. So take a peek at this free list of interesting companies with past earnings growth (and further growth forecast).

Those who invested in Brady (NYSE:BRC) three years ago are up 63%

Low-cost index funds make it easy to achieve average market returns. But across the board there are plenty of stocks that underperform the market. Unfortunately for shareholders, while the Brady Corporation (NYSE:BRC) share price is up 55% in the last three years, that falls short of the market return. In the last year the stock price gained, albeit only 3.0%. So let's investigate and see if the longer term performance of the company has been in line with the underlying business' progress. This technology could replace computers: discover the 20 stocks are working to make quantum computing a reality. 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. Brady was able to grow its EPS at 16% per year over three years, sending the share price higher. This EPS growth is remarkably close to the 16% average annual increase in the share price. That suggests that the market sentiment around the company hasn't changed much over that time. Quite to the contrary, the share price has arguably reflected the EPS growth. You can see how EPS has changed over time in the image below (click on the chart to see the exact values). Before buying or selling a stock, we always recommend a close examination of historic growth trends, available here. When looking at investment returns, it is important to consider the difference between total shareholder return (TSR) and share price return. 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. Arguably, the TSR gives a more comprehensive picture of the return generated by a stock. In the case of Brady, it has a TSR of 63% for the last 3 years. That exceeds its share price return that we previously mentioned. And there's no prize for guessing that the dividend payments largely explain the divergence! Brady shareholders gained a total return of 4.4% during the year. Unfortunately this falls short of the market return. It's probably a good sign that the company has an even better long term track record, having provided shareholders with an annual TSR of 9% over five years. It's quite possible the business continues to execute with prowess, even as the share price gains are slowing. If you would like to research Brady in more detail then you might want to take a look at whether insiders have been buying or selling shares in the company.
