Seri Industrial (BIT:SERI) adds €14m to market cap in the past 7 days, though investors from three years ago are still down 56%

Simply Wall St · 5d ago

Seri Industrial S.p.A. (BIT:SERI) shareholders should be happy to see the share price up 11% in the last week. But that is small recompense for the exasperating returns over three years. Indeed, the share price is down a tragic 56% in the last three years. Some might say the recent bounce is to be expected after such a bad drop. The rise has some hopeful, but turnarounds are often precarious.

The recent uptick of 11% could be a positive sign of things to come, so let's take a look at historical fundamentals.

While the efficient markets hypothesis continues to be taught by some, it has been proven that markets are over-reactive dynamic systems, and investors are not always rational. By comparing earnings per share (EPS) and share price changes over time, we can get a feel for how investor attitudes to a company have morphed over time.

Seri Industrial became profitable within the last five years. That would generally be considered a positive, so we are surprised to see the share price is down. So given the share price is down it's worth checking some other metrics too.

We note that, in three years, revenue has actually grown at a 12% annual rate, so that doesn't seem to be a reason to sell shares. This analysis is just perfunctory, but it might be worth researching Seri Industrial more closely, as sometimes stocks fall unfairly. This could present an opportunity.

A Different Perspective

Seri Industrial shareholders are up 8.3% for the year. But that was short of the market average. On the bright side, that's still a gain, and it is certainly better than the yearly loss of about 6% endured over half a decade. So this might be a sign the business has turned its fortunes around. While it is well worth considering the different impacts that market conditions can have on the share price, there are other factors that are even more important.
