Frequently Asked Questions

Is high EPS always better for investors?

High absolute EPS is positive, but what really matters is EPS growth over time and the P/E multiple at which you are buying that EPS. A company with ₦10 EPS growing at 20% per year is often more valuable than one with ₦15 EPS that has been flat for five years.
