MiMedx Group isn't currently profitable, so most analysts would look to revenue growth to get an idea of how fast the underlying business is growing. When a company doesn't make profits, we'd generally expect to see good revenue growth. That's because it's hard to be confident a company will be sustainable if revenue growth is negligible, and it never makes a profit.

In the last 3 years MiMedx Group saw its revenue shrink by 13% per year. So the share price gain of 48% per year is quite surprising. It's fair to say shareholders are definitely counting on a bright future.
