As a former equity analyst, I would say that it's probably better just to ignore this analysis then read too much into it.

The performance of company's stock isn't based solely on whether the company reported a net income it's previous year; it's based on (imo) an ever fluctuating list of metrics, both controlled by the company (i.e. Return on Capital Invested, which net income is a component of) and not controlled by the company (i.e. cost for banks to borrow capital, future growth expectations, current market valuation).
