There was no particular change to the consensus price target of €209, with D'Ieteren Group's latest outlook seemingly not enough to result in a change of valuation.

Of course, another way to look at these forecasts is to place them into context against the industry itself. We would highlight that D'Ieteren Group's revenue growth is expected to slow, with the forecast 12% annualised growth rate until the end of 2025 being well below the historical 23% p.a. growth over the last five years. Juxtapose this against the other companies in the industry with analyst coverage, which are forecast to grow their revenues (in aggregate) 5.1% per year. So it's pretty clear that, while D'Ieteren Group's revenue growth is expected to slow, it's still expected to grow faster than the industry itself.

The Bottom Line

The most important thing to take away from this upgrade is that analysts lifted their revenue estimates for this year. The analysts also expect revenues to grow faster than the wider market. Given that analysts appear to be expecting substantial improvement in the sales pipeline, now could be the right time to take another look at D'Ieteren Group.
