These three shares have delivered respectable returns to shareholders over the past year and seem to continue climbing after notching up more gains on Thursday.

Kogan.Com Ltd (ASX: KGN)

While traditional retailers such as Myer Holdings Ltd (ASX: MYR) and Harvey Norman Holdings Limited (ASX: HVN) have slumped over the past year, digital retailer Kogan.Com continues to rise.

The business, which includes an online market place offering consumers more than 50,000 products, has seen its share price rise by more than 400% over the past year after clocking up another 8.25% gain on Thursday.

And Kogan.Com continues to expand, having entered into an agreement with Greenstone Financial Services Pty Ltd allowing it to add life insurance and funeral insurance services to its portfolio.

The latest agreement compliments its insurance portfolio and follows an agreement with Medibank Private Ltd (ASX: MPL), which enables Kogan.com to offer budget health insurance policies under its Kogan Health brand.
