View our latest analysis for Ten Lifestyle Group
Ten Lifestyle Group 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.
Ten Lifestyle Group grew its revenue by 25% over the last year. We think that is pretty nice growth. Unfortunately that wasn't good enough to stop the share price dropping 17%. This implies the market was expecting better growth. However, that's in the past now, and it's the future that matters most.

A Different Perspective
Ten Lifestyle Group shareholders are down 17% for the year, even worse than the market loss of 0.04%. There's no doubt that's a disappointment, but the stock may well have fared better in a stronger market. It's great to see a nice little 26% rebound in the last three months. Let's just hope this isn't the widely-feared 'dead cat bounce' (which would indicate further declines to come).
