The worst result, after buying shares in a company (assuming no leverage), would be if you lose all the money you put in. But on a lighter note, a good company can see its share price rise well over 100%. One great example is Shijiazhuang ChangShan BeiMing Technology Co.,Ltd (SZSE:000158) which saw its share price drive 136% higher over five years. It's also good to see the share price up 32% over the last quarter.

Since it's been a strong week for Shijiazhuang ChangShan BeiMing TechnologyLtd shareholders, let's have a look at trend of the longer term fundamentals.

Because Shijiazhuang ChangShan BeiMing TechnologyLtd 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.

Over the last half decade Shijiazhuang ChangShan BeiMing TechnologyLtd's revenue has actually been trending down at about 0.2% per year. Given that scenario, we wouldn't have expected the share price to rise 19% per year, but that's what it did. It's a good reminder that expectations about the future, not the past history, always impact share prices. Still, we are a bit cautious in this kind of situation.
