Margins Strengthen as Market Diversifies

• Net profit margins have improved from 6.5% last year to 7.5%, with analysts projecting a further rise to 8.9% over the next 3 years as FTG diversifies its revenue base.
• Consensus narrative points out that margin gains are expected to come from new international facilities and expanded Airbus opportunities,
  • FTG's move into India and more Airbus-related work is targeting cost-effective production and reduced reliance on US markets,
  • These strategic shifts may counterbalance tariff pressures and boost net margins, lending credibility to margin expansion guidance.

Growth Targets Outpace Peers

• Earnings are forecast to grow at a 23.2% annual pace, significantly outstripping the Canadian market’s projected rate of 11.3%. Revenue is also expected to grow at nearly double the broader market rate.
• Analysts' consensus view notes that catalyst deals such as the FLYHT acquisition and increased aftermarket sales are set to accelerate FTG’s revenue run-rate,
  • Additional growth from new contracts and cost synergies is seen as a lever to sustain superior growth versus peers,
  • However, execution on integration and expansion outside legacy US markets will be key to realizing these bullish expectations.

Analysts think continued margin gains and international expansion could fuel outperformance. See how the consensus stacks up against real-world developments. 📊 Read the full Firan Technology Group Consensus Narrative.

Valuation Still Shows Major Discount

• Despite these growth rates, FTG trades at a price-to-earnings ratio of 19.5x, which is meaningfully below both the industry’s 25.2x average and a peer average of 72.5x. The current share price of CA$10.75 sits well beneath its analyst target of CA$15.33, and is discounted even further compared to a DCF fair value of CA$41.23.
• The consensus narrative emphasizes that in order for FTG to reach the target price,
  • Revenue will need to hit CA$246.5 million and earnings CA$21.8 million by 2028, which does set a high bar, but the current trading discount suggests expectations are already cautious,
  • Investors are encouraged to sense-check analyst assumptions and weigh whether FTG’s projected growth justifies its sizable valuation gap to peers and modeled DCF fair value.
