National Energy Services Reunited (NASDAQ:NESR) shareholders have earned a 102% return over the last year

It hasn't been the best quarter for National Energy Services Reunited Corp. (NASDAQ:NESR) shareholders, since the share price has fallen 15% in that time. Despite this, the stock is a strong performer over the last year, no doubt about that. During that period, the share price soared a full 102%. So it is important to view the recent reduction in price through that lense. Only time will tell if there is still too much optimism currently reflected in the share price.

So let's investigate and see if the longer term performance of the company has been in line with the underlying business' progress.
