Did A1OS's recent earnings growth beat the long-term trend and the industry?
A1OS's trailing twelve-month earnings (from 31 December 2018) of €13m has declined by -0.8% compared to the previous year.
Furthermore, this one-year growth rate has been lower than its average earnings growth rate over the past 5 years of 13%, indicating the rate at which A1OS is growing has slowed down. Why is this? Well, let’s take a look at what’s going on with margins and if the whole industry is feeling the heat.
In terms of returns from investment, All for One Group has fallen short of achieving a 20% return on equity (ROE), recording 16% instead. However, its return on assets (ROA) of 7.4% exceeds the DE IT industry of 5.9%, indicating All for One Group has used its assets more efficiently. Though, its return on capital (ROC), which also accounts for All for One Group’s debt level, has declined over the past 3 years from 17% to 14%.
