Check out our latest analysis for Space Group Holdings

To paraphrase Benjamin Graham: Over the short term the market is a voting machine, but over the long term it's a weighing machine. 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.

During the last year, Space Group Holdings actually saw its earnings per share drop 28%.

So we don't think that investors are paying too much attention to EPS. Therefore, it seems likely that investors are putting more weight on metrics other than EPS, at the moment.

Space Group Holdings's revenue actually dropped 9.1% over last year. So the fundamental metrics don't provide an obvious explanation for the share price gain.
