Simply Wall St · 09/24 23:08

With a price-to-sales (or "P/S") ratio of 7.7x Zylox-Tonbridge Medical Technology Co., Ltd. (HKG:2190) may be sending bearish signals at the moment, given that almost half of all Medical Equipment companies in Hong Kong have P/S ratios under 5.8x and even P/S lower than 1.7x are not unusual. Nonetheless, we'd need to dig a little deeper to determine if there is a rational basis for the elevated P/S.

How Is Zylox-Tonbridge Medical Technology's Revenue Growth Trending?

The only time you'd be truly comfortable seeing a P/S as high as Zylox-Tonbridge Medical Technology's is when the company's growth is on track to outshine the industry.

Taking a look back first, we see that the company grew revenue by an impressive 35% last year. Pleasingly, revenue has also lifted 247% in aggregate from three years ago, thanks to the last 12 months of growth. So we can start by confirming that the company has done a great job of growing revenue over that time.

Shifting to the future, estimates from the four analysts covering the company suggest revenue should grow by 29% each year over the next three years. That's shaping up to be materially higher than the 23% each year growth forecast for the broader industry.

With this in mind, it's not hard to understand why Zylox-Tonbridge Medical Technology's P/S is high relative to its industry peers. It seems most investors are expecting this strong future growth and are willing to pay more for the stock.

The Key Takeaway

We'd say the price-to-sales ratio's power isn't primarily as a valuation instrument but rather to gauge current investor sentiment and future expectations.

Our look into Zylox-Tonbridge Medical Technology shows that its P/S ratio remains high on the merit of its strong future revenues. At this stage investors feel the potential for a deterioration in revenues is quite remote, justifying the elevated P/S ratio. Unless these conditions change, they will continue to provide strong support to the share price.
