This stock is in the air delivery & freight services industry, which has proven to be an excellent industry over the trailing five-year period. What's more, while a 10-year record is unavailable for this stock, it has been one of the strongest performers in its industry over the five-year period. Keep in mind when looking at a stock or industry's record that historic returns are not necessarily a predictor of future performance. Persistent strength or weakness, however, may very well say something about the structure of an industry or quality of a company's management.

*Industry Average
This stock's forward earnings yield of 3.66% is the annual return it would generate if its profits remained fixed and it paid out all of its earnings as dividends. Not only is this much lower than the earnings yields of other stocks in its industry, it is also low in absolute terms. For this company to generate decent returns for investors, it will have to realize considerable growth in earnings or a higher valuation by the market. Note that the earnings yield shown is based on consensus Wall Street estimates of earnings; and it is only a good measure of the stock's value insofar as those estimates prove accurate.

Sustainable Growth Rate %10.5
This stock has [In1] steady revenue growth over the past three years. [In1] this stock's earnings per share have grown at a very high rate over past three years, though they actually declined last year. Note that this stock's sustainable growth rate is quite a bit less than the rate at which its earnings per share have grown. That means that the company will probably have to raise additional capital from outside sources at some point if it continues to grow at its current rate.
