Even the best investor on earth makes unsuccessful investments. But serious investors should think long and hard about avoiding extreme losses. It must have been painful to be a Aveanna Healthcare Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:AVAH) shareholder over the last year, since the stock price plummeted 82% in that time. While some investors are willing to stomach this sort of loss, they are usually professionals who spread their bets thinly. Because Aveanna Healthcare Holdings hasn't been listed for many years, the market is still learning about how the business performs. Shareholders have had an even rougher run lately, with the share price down 42% in the last 90 days. We note that the company has reported results fairly recently; and the market is hardly delighted. You can check out the latest numbers in our company report. While a drop like that is definitely a body blow, money isn't as important as health and happiness.
Given the past week has been tough on shareholders, let's investigate the fundamentals and see what we can learn.

Because Aveanna Healthcare Holdings 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. When a company doesn't make profits, we'd generally expect to see good revenue growth. That's because fast revenue growth can be easily extrapolated to forecast profits, often of considerable size.
Aveanna Healthcare Holdings grew its revenue by 4.8% over the last year. That's not a very high growth rate considering it doesn't make profits. Nonetheless, it's fair to say the 82% share price implosion is unexpected.. We'd venture this growth was too low to give holders confidence that profitability is on the horizon. If and only if this company is still likely to succeed, just a little slower, this could be a good opportunity.

A Different Perspective
We doubt Aveanna Healthcare Holdings shareholders are happy with the loss of 82% over twelve months. That falls short of the market, which lost 18%. There's no doubt that's a disappointment, but the stock may well have fared better in a stronger market. With the stock down 42% over the last three months, the market doesn't seem to believe that the company has solved all its problems. Basically, most investors should be wary of buying into a poor-performing stock, unless the business itself has clearly improved. It's always interesting to track share price performance over the longer term. But to understand Aveanna Healthcare Holdings better, we need to consider many other factors. To that end, you should be aware of the 2 warning signs we've spotted with Aveanna Healthcare Holdings .
