What is Revenue Growth Rate?
Revenue growth rate is percentage change in sales over period — YoY common on results.
Formula
Stocks trading above 10× revenue are priced on future revenue expansion; when growth falls below 20% YoY, Wall Street re-rates them as value names and P/S multiples collapse from 15–20× to 5–8×.
