Generally speaking long term investing is the way to go. But that doesn't mean long term investors can avoid big losses. For example, after five long years the Hainan Haiyao Co., Ltd. (SZSE:000566) share price is a whole 68% lower. That's not a lot of fun for true believers. And the share price decline continued over the last week, dropping some 6.2%.
With the stock having lost 6.2% in the past week, it's worth taking a look at business performance and seeing if there's any red flags.

Hainan Haiyao 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 it's hard to be confident a company will be sustainable if revenue growth is negligible, and it never makes a profit.
In the last half decade, Hainan Haiyao saw its revenue increase by 2.8% per year. That's not a very high growth rate considering it doesn't make profits. This lacklustre growth has no doubt fueled the loss of 11% per year, in that time. We'd want to see proof that future revenue growth is likely to be significantly stronger before getting too interested in Hainan Haiyao. When a stock falls hard like this, some investors like to add the company to a watchlist (in case the business recovers, longer term).

A Different Perspective
We regret to report that Hainan Haiyao shareholders are down 9.8% for the year. Unfortunately, that's worse than the broader market decline of 8.5%. 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. However, the loss over the last year isn't as bad as the 11% per annum loss investors have suffered over the last half decade. We would want clear information suggesting the company will grow, before taking the view that the share price will stabilize. It's always interesting to track share price performance over the longer term. But to understand Hainan Haiyao better, we need to consider many other factors.

一般来说,长期投资是一条可行的道路。但这并不意味着长期投资者可以避免巨额亏损。例如,在漫长的五年之后,海南海药股份有限公司(SZSE:000566)股价整体下跌68%。对于真正的信徒来说,这并不是什么有趣的事情。过去一周,股价继续下跌,跌幅约为6.2%。
鉴于该公司股价在过去一周下跌了6.2%,我们有必要看看公司的业绩,看看是否有任何危险信号。
请看我们对海南海药的最新分析
海南海药目前还没有盈利,因此大多数分析师都会通过收入增长来了解其基础业务的增长速度有多快。未盈利公司的股东通常预期营收增长强劲。这是因为,如果一家公司的收入增长微不足道,而且永远不会盈利,那么很难相信它会持续下去。
在过去的五年里,海南海药的收入以每年2.8%的速度增长。考虑到它没有盈利,这并不是一个很高的增长率。在此期间,这种低迷的增长无疑加剧了每年11%的损失。在对海南海药产生太大兴趣之前,我们希望看到证据表明,未来的收入增长可能会明显强劲。当一只股票像这样大幅下跌时,一些投资者喜欢将该公司添加到观察名单中(以防业务复苏,从长远来看)。

不同的视角
我们遗憾地报告,海南海药的股东今年以来下跌了9.8%。不幸的是,这比大盘8.5%的跌幅还要糟糕。然而,这可能只是因为股价受到了更广泛的市场紧张情绪的影响。也许有必要关注基本面,以防出现良机。不过,过去一年的损失没有过去五年投资者每年11%的损失那么严重。在认为股价将企稳之前,我们希望有明确的信息表明该公司将会增长。跟踪股价的长期表现总是很有趣的。但要更好地理解海南海遥,我们还需要考虑许多其他因素。即便如此,请注意,海南海药正在展示在我们的投资分析中出现1个警告信号,你应该知道关于……
