Shareholders Of Aeris Resources (ASX:AIS) Have Received 43% On Their Investment

Aeris Resources Limited (ASX:AIS) shareholders should be happy to see the share price up 29% in the last month.

See our latest analysis for Aeris Resources

Given that Aeris Resources didn't make a profit in the last twelve months, we'll focus on revenue growth to form a quick view of its business development. Generally speaking, companies without profits are expected to grow revenue every year, and at a good clip. That's because it's hard to be confident a company will be sustainable if revenue growth is negligible, and it never makes a profit.

Over three years, Aeris Resources grew revenue at 7.5% per year. Given it's losing money in pursuit of growth, we are not really impressed with that. Indeed, the stock dropped 7.2% over the last three years. If revenue growth accelerates, we might see the share price bounce. But ultimately the key will be whether the company can become profitability.

What about the Total Shareholder Return (TSR)?

We've already covered Aeris Resources' share price action, but we should also mention its total shareholder return (TSR). The TSR attempts to capture the value of dividends (as if they were reinvested) as well as any spin-offs or discounted capital raisings offered to shareholders. Aeris Resources' TSR of 43% for the 3 years exceeded its share price return, because it has paid dividends.

A Different Perspective

It's nice to see that Aeris Resources shareholders have received a total shareholder return of 41% over the last year. That's better than the annualised return of 15% 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. It's always interesting to track share price performance over the longer term. But to understand Aeris Resources better, we need to consider many other factors.
