Earnings Miss: Yduqs Participações S.A. Missed EPS By 92% And Analysts Are Revising Their Forecasts

Yduqs Participações S.A. (BVMF:YDUQ3) shareholders are probably feeling a little disappointed, since its shares fell 2.0% to R$13.05 in the week after its latest second-quarter results. It looks like a pretty bad result, all things considered. Although revenues of R$1.4b were in line with analyst predictions, statutory earnings fell badly short, missing estimates by 92% to hit R$0.013 per share.

These estimates are interesting, but it can be useful to paint some more broad strokes when seeing how forecasts compare, both to the Yduqs Participações' past performance and to peers in the same industry. It's pretty clear that there is an expectation that Yduqs Participações' revenue growth will slow down substantially, with revenues to the end of 2025 expected to display 5.2% growth on an annualised basis. This is compared to a historical growth rate of 8.0% over the past five years. Compare this to the 9 other companies in this industry with analyst coverage, which are forecast to grow their revenue at 6.1% per year. So it's pretty clear that, while Yduqs Participações' revenue growth is expected to slow, it's expected to grow roughly in line with the industry.

The Bottom Line

The most obvious conclusion is that there's been no major change in the business' prospects in recent times, with the analysts holding their earnings forecasts steady, in line with previous estimates. Happily, there were no real changes to revenue forecasts, with the business still expected to grow in line with the overall industry. There was no real change to the consensus price target, suggesting that the intrinsic value of the business has not undergone any major changes with the latest estimates.
