After Leaping 33% Yixin Group Limited (HKG:2858) Shares Are Not Flying Under The Radar

Simply Wall St.
07-09

Despite an already strong run, Yixin Group Limited (HKG:2858) shares have been powering on, with a gain of 33% in the last thirty days. The last month tops off a massive increase of 280% in the last year.

Following the firm bounce in price, given close to half the companies in Hong Kong have price-to-earnings ratios (or "P/E's") below 11x, you may consider Yixin Group as a stock to avoid entirely with its 19.2x P/E ratio. Although, it's not wise to just take the P/E at face value as there may be an explanation why it's so lofty.

We've found 21 US stocks that are forecast to pay a dividend yield of over 6% next year. See the full list for free.

With earnings growth that's superior to most other companies of late, Yixin Group has been doing relatively well. It seems that many are expecting the strong earnings performance to persist, which has raised the P/E. You'd really hope so, otherwise you're paying a pretty hefty price for no particular reason.

Does Growth Match The High P/E?

Yixin Group's P/E ratio would be typical for a company that's expected to deliver very strong growth, and importantly, perform much better than the market.

If we review the last year of earnings growth, the company posted a terrific increase of 45%. The strong recent performance means it was also able to grow EPS by 2,516% in total over the last three years. So we can start by confirming that the company has done a great job of growing earnings over that time.

Shifting to the future, estimates from the two analysts covering the company suggest earnings should grow by 29% each year over the next three years. With the market only predicted to deliver 14% per year, the company is positioned for a stronger earnings result.

In light of this, it's understandable that Yixin Group's P/E sits above the majority of other companies. It seems most investors are expecting this strong future growth and are willing to pay more for the stock.

The Bottom Line On Yixin Group's P/E

Shares in Yixin Group have built up some good momentum lately, which has really inflated its P/E. Generally, our preference is to limit the use of the price-to-earnings ratio to establishing what the market thinks about the overall health of a company.
