Why Does TRUP Stock Spark Debate?

Born from a vision to help pet owners avoid economic euthanasia when faced with expensive veterinary bills, Trupanion (NASDAQ: TRUP) provides medical insurance for cats and dogs through data-driven, vertically-integrated products priced specifically for each pet's unique characteristics.

Two Positive Attributes:

1. Skyrocketing Revenue Shows Strong Momentum

Insurance companies generate revenue three ways. The first is the core insurance business itself, represented in the income statement as premiums earned. The second source is investment income from investing the “float” (premiums collected but not yet paid out as claims) in assets such as fixed-income assets and equities. The third is fees from policy administration, annuities, and other value-added services.

Over the last five years, Trupanion grew its revenue at an incredible 26.5% compounded annual growth rate. Its growth beat the average insurance company and shows its offerings resonate with customers. Trupanion Quarterly Revenue

2. Outstanding Long-Term EPS Growth

Analyzing the long-term change in earnings per share (EPS) shows whether a company's incremental sales were profitable – for example, revenue could be inflated through excessive spending on advertising and promotions.

Trupanion’s EPS grew at an astounding 39.9% compounded annual growth rate over the last five years, higher than its 26.5% annualized revenue growth. This tells us the company became more profitable on a per-share basis as it expanded.

One Reason to be Careful:

Projected BVPS Growth Shows Limited Upside

Book value per share (BVPS) growth is driven by an insurer’s ability to earn consistent underwriting profits while generating strong investment returns.

Over the next 12 months, Consensus estimates call for Trupanion’s BVPS to remain flat at roughly $7.50, a disappointing projection.
