The latest analyst coverage could presage a bad day for Kuuhubb Inc. (CVE:KUU), with the covering analyst making across-the-board cuts to their statutory estimates that might leave shareholders a little shell-shocked. Revenue estimates were cut sharply as the analyst signalled a weaker outlook - perhaps a sign that investors should temper their expectations as well.

Following the downgrade, the latest consensus from Kuuhubb's one analyst is for revenues of US$20m in 2021, which would reflect a sizeable 139% improvement in sales compared to the last 12 months. Before the latest update, the analyst was foreseeing US$25m of revenue in 2021. It looks like forecasts have become a fair bit less optimistic on Kuuhubb, given the substantial drop in revenue estimates.
