A Piece Of The Puzzle Missing From Tobii AB (publ)'s (STO:TOBII) 30% Share Price Climb

Simply Wall St · 2d ago

Tobii AB (publ) (STO:TOBII) shareholders are no doubt pleased to see that the share price has bounced 30% in the last month, although it is still struggling to make up recently lost ground. Looking further back, the 19% rise over the last twelve months isn't too bad notwithstanding the strength over the last 30 days.

However, the P/S might be low for a reason and it requires further investigation to determine if it's justified.

It's interesting to note that the rest of the industry is similarly expected to grow by 9.4% over the next year, which is fairly even with the company's recent medium-term annualised growth rates.
