Embellence Group Future Earnings and Revenue Growth

Assumptions

• Analysts are assuming Embellence Group's revenue will grow by 3.6% annually over the next 3 years.
• Analysts assume that profit margins will increase from 8.5% today to 9.8% in 3 years time.
• Analysts expect earnings to reach SEK 83.3 million (and earnings per share of SEK 3.59) by about July 2028, up from SEK 65.2 million today.
• In order for the above numbers to justify the analysts price target, the company would need to trade at a PE ratio of 14.5x on those 2028 earnings, up from 13.0x today. This future PE is lower than the current PE for the SE Consumer Durables industry at 19.9x.

Embellence Group Future Earnings Per Share Growth

Risks

• A significant portion of recent sales and growth figures, especially in the Brand and Manufacturing segments, were positively impacted by extraordinary, non-recurring events and base effect comparisons; as these roll off, growth rates are expected to stabilize or slow, potentially reducing revenue and earnings growth in future periods.
  
• The Group’s exposure to broader macroeconomic risks—such as declining consumer confidence, continued market uncertainty, and retailer hesitance to stock inventory—creates vulnerability to swings in underlying demand, which may limit revenue and earnings expansion if consumer spending weakens.
  
• Heavy dependence on legacy brands with historic appeal and traditional product categories (such as wallpaper) could be challenged if secular home décor trends shift more aggressively toward minimalism, decluttering, or digital/experiential alternatives, negatively impacting future revenue growth.
  
• The company’s international expansion ambitions could be constrained by relatively low D2C sales penetration and limited global brand recognition compared to larger international peers, which may limit scalability and restrict top-line growth.
  
• Fierce competition, especially in wallpaper manufacturing and external manufacturing services, is acknowledged as “very crowded,” heightening the risk of pricing pressures and margin compression, which could negatively impact net margins and profitability over the long term.
