Can You Imagine How Super League Gaming's (NASDAQ:SLGG) Shareholders Feel About The 26% Share Price Increase?

These days it's easy to simply buy an index fund, and your returns should (roughly) match the market. But investors can boost returns by picking market-beating companies to own shares in. To wit, the Super League Gaming, Inc. (NASDAQ:SLGG) share price is 26% higher than it was a year ago, much better than the market return of around 21% (not including dividends) in the same period. That's a solid performance by our standards! We'll need to follow Super League Gaming for a while to get a better sense of its share price trend, since it hasn't been listed for particularly long.

View our latest analysis for Super League Gaming

Super League Gaming isn't currently profitable, so most analysts would look to revenue growth to get an idea of how fast the underlying business is growing. Generally speaking, companies without profits are expected to grow revenue every year, and at a good clip. Some companies are willing to postpone profitability to grow revenue faster, but in that case one does expect good top-line growth.

Over the last twelve months, Super League Gaming's revenue grew by 26%. That's a fairly respectable growth rate. While the share price performed well, gaining 26% over twelve months, you could argue the revenue growth warranted it. If the company can maintain the revenue growth, the share price could go higher still. But before deciding this growth stock is underappreciated, you might want to check out profitability trends (and cash flow)

A Different Perspective

Super League Gaming shareholders should be happy with the total gain of 26% over the last twelve months. And the share price momentum remains respectable, with a gain of 76% in the last three months. This suggests the company is continuing to win over new investors. I find it very interesting to look at share price over the long term as a proxy for business performance.
