Because Ansarada Group made a loss in the last twelve months, we think the market is probably more focussed on revenue and revenue growth, at least for now. Generally speaking, companies without profits are expected to grow revenue every year, and at a good clip. That's because fast revenue growth can be easily extrapolated to forecast profits, often of considerable size.
In the last year Ansarada Group saw its revenue grow by 31%. We respect that sort of growth, no doubt. Buyers pushed the share price 12% in response, which isn't unreasonable.
