Huron Consulting Group's (NASDAQ:HURN) 34% CAGR Outpaced the Company's Earnings Growth Over the Same Three-year Period
It might seem bad, but the worst that can happen when you buy a stock (without leverage) is that its share price goes to zero. But in contrast you can make much more than 100% if the company does well. To wit, the Huron Consulting Group Inc. (NASDAQ:HURN) share price has flown 143% in the last three years. Most would be happy with that. It's also good to see the share price up 24% over the last quarter. But this could be related to the strong market, which is up 12% in the last three months.
購買股票(不使用槓桿)可能看起來是不好的,但最糟糕的情況就是股價跌至零。相比之下,如果公司表現良好,你的收益可遠遠超過100%。舉個例子,納斯達克上的休倫諮詢集團股價在過去三年飆漲了143%。大多數人對此會感到滿意。過去一個季度股價上漲了24%,也是一個好兆頭。但這可能與強勁的市場有關,過去三個月市場上漲了12%。
The past week has proven to be lucrative for Huron Consulting Group investors, so let's see if fundamentals drove the company's three-year performance.
過去一週對休倫諮詢集團的投資者而言,證明是盈利的,讓我們看看基本面是否推動了公司三年的表現。
While markets are a powerful pricing mechanism, share prices reflect investor sentiment, not just underlying business performance. One flawed but reasonable way to assess how sentiment around a company has changed is to compare the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price.
雖然市場是一個強大的定價機制,但股價反映了投資者情緒,不僅僅是基本業績。一種有缺陷但合理的評估公司周圍情緒如何變化的方法是將每股收益(EPS)與股價進行比較。
During three years of share price growth, Huron Consulting Group achieved compound earnings per share growth of 64% per year. This EPS growth is higher than the 34% average annual increase in the share price. Therefore, it seems the market has moderated its expectations for growth, somewhat.
在股價增長的三年內,休倫諮詢集團實現了每年64%的compound每股收益增長。這種EPS增長高於股價平均每年增長的34%。因此,市場似乎已對增長的預期進行了一定的調整。

A Different Perspective
另一種看法
Huron Consulting Group provided a TSR of 25% over the last twelve months. But that return falls short of the market. On the bright side, that's still a gain, and it's actually better than the average return of 14% over half a decade This suggests the company might be improving over time. It's always interesting to track share price performance over the longer term. But to understand Huron Consulting Group better, we need to consider many other factors. To that end, you should be aware of the 1 warning sign we've spotted with Huron Consulting Group .
休倫諮詢集團在過去十二個月內提供了25%的TSR。 但這一回報還不及市場。 但從積極的一面來看,這仍然是一個收益,並且實際上比過去五年14%的平均回報更好 這表明該公司可能隨着時間的推移而改善。 追蹤股價長期表現總是很有趣。 但要更好地了解休倫諮詢集團,我們需要考慮許多其他因素。 出於這個目的,您應該注意到我們在休倫諮詢集團發現的 1個警告信號 。
