ASX:SAN Income Statement Nov 28th 17
We can further assess Sagalio Energy’s loss by looking at what has been happening in the industry as well as within the company. First, I want to briefly look into the line items. Revenue growth over last couple of years has increased by 57.43%, indicating that Sagalio Energy is in a high-growth phase with expenses racing ahead high top-line growth rates. Eyeballing growth from a sector-level, the Australian oil, gas and consumable fuels industry has been increasing average earnings growth of 57.50% over the past twelve months, and a less exciting 3.66% over the previous few years. This means whatever tailwind the industry is enjoying, Sagalio Energy has not been able to leverage it as much as its industry peers.
What does this mean?
Though Sagalio Energy’s past data is helpful, it is only one aspect of my investment thesis. Companies that incur net loss is always hard to predict what will occur going forward, and when. The most insightful step is to assess company-specific issues Sagalio Energy may be facing and whether management guidance has consistently been met in the past.
