After Leaping 108% Star Plus Legend Holdings Limited (HKG:6683) Shares Are Not Flying Under The Radar

Simply Wall St.
10 Jul

Despite an already strong run, Star Plus Legend Holdings Limited (HKG:6683) shares have been powering on, with a gain of 108% in the last thirty days. Looking further back, the 13% rise over the last twelve months isn't too bad notwithstanding the strength over the last 30 days.

Following the firm bounce in price, you could be forgiven for thinking Star Plus Legend Holdings is a stock to steer clear of with a price-to-sales ratios (or "P/S") of 16.7x, considering almost half the companies in Hong Kong's Food industry have P/S ratios below 0.6x. Nonetheless, we'd need to dig a little deeper to determine if there is a rational basis for the highly elevated P/S.

Do Revenue Forecasts Match The High P/S Ratio?

There's an inherent assumption that a company should far outperform the industry for P/S ratios like Star Plus Legend Holdings' to be considered reasonable.

If we review the last year of revenue growth, the company posted a terrific increase of 36%. The latest three year period has also seen an excellent 60% overall rise in revenue, aided by its short-term performance. Accordingly, shareholders would have definitely welcomed those medium-term rates of revenue growth.

When compared to the industry's one-year growth forecast of 4.5%, the most recent medium-term revenue trajectory is noticeably more alluring

In light of this, it's understandable that Star Plus Legend Holdings' P/S sits above the majority of other companies. Presumably shareholders aren't keen to offload something they believe will continue to outmanoeuvre the wider industry.

The Bottom Line On Star Plus Legend Holdings' P/S

Shares in Star Plus Legend Holdings have seen a strong upwards swing lately, which has really helped boost its P/S figure. Typically, we'd caution against reading too much into price-to-sales ratios when settling on investment decisions, though it can reveal plenty about what other market participants think about the company.

It's no surprise that Star Plus Legend Holdings can support its high P/S given the strong revenue growth its experienced over the last three-year is superior to the current industry outlook. Right now shareholders are comfortable with the P/S as they are quite confident revenue aren't under threat. Barring any significant changes to the company's ability to make money, the share price should continue to be propped up.
