Yahoo Finance Announcing: Facedrive (CVE:FD) Stock Increased An Energizing 276% In The Last Year
Facedrive Inc. (CVE:FD) shareholders might understandably be very concerned that the share price has dropped 48% in the last quarter. Despite this, the stock is a strong performer over the last year, no doubt about that. Indeed, the share price is up an impressive 276% in that time. So we think most shareholders won't be too upset about the recent fall. More important, going forward, is how the business itself is going.

Facedrive isn't currently profitable, so most analysts would look to revenue growth to get an idea of how fast the underlying business is growing. 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.
Over the last twelve months, Facedrive's revenue grew by 552%. That's a head and shoulders above most loss-making companies. Meanwhile, the market has paid attention, sending the share price soaring 276% in response. That sort of revenue growth is bound to attract attention, even if the company doesn't turn a profit. The strong share price rise indicates optimism, so there may be a better opportunity for buyers as the hype fades a bit.
