MYT Netherlands Parent B.V. (NYSE:MYTE) shareholders should be happy to see the share price up 11% in the last month. But that's small comfort given the dismal price performance over the last year. Like an arid lake in a warming world, shareholder value has evaporated, with the share price down 62% in that time. It's not that amazing to see a bounce after a drop like that. It may be that the fall was an overreaction.
It's worthwhile assessing if the company's economics have been moving in lockstep with these underwhelming shareholder returns, or if there is some disparity between the two. So let's do just that.

The share price decline has continued throughout the most recent three months, down 9.4%, suggesting an absence of enthusiasm from investors. Given the relatively short history of this stock, we'd remain pretty wary until we see some strong business performance.
