Emmi AG (VTX:EMMN) Just Released Its Interim Results And Analysts Are Updating Their Estimates

It's been a good week for Emmi AG (VTX:EMMN) shareholders, because the company has just released its latest interim results, and the shares gained 4.6% to CHF757. Emmi reported in line with analyst predictions, delivering revenues of CHF2.3b and statutory earnings per share of CHF41.18, suggesting the business is executing well and in line with its plan. The analysts typically update their forecasts at each earnings report, and we can judge from their estimates whether their view of the company has changed or if there are any new concerns to be aware of. So we collected the latest post-earnings statutory consensus estimates to see what could be in store for next year.

Following last week's earnings report, Emmi's five analysts are forecasting 2025 revenues to be CHF4.69b, approximately in line with the last 12 months. Statutory earnings per share are predicted to accumulate 8.9% to CHF43.39. Yet prior to the latest earnings, the analysts had been anticipated revenues of CHF4.70b and earnings per share (EPS) of CHF43.73 in 2025. The consensus analysts don't seem to have seen anything in these results that would have changed their view on the business, given there's been no major change to their estimates.

There were no changes to revenue or earnings estimates or the price target of CHF928, suggesting that the company has met expectations in its recent result. The consensus price target is just an average of individual analyst targets, so - it could be handy to see how wide the range of underlying estimates is. The most optimistic Emmi analyst has a price target of CHF1,097 per share, while the most pessimistic values it at CHF715. As you can see, analysts are not all in agreement on the stock's future, but the range of estimates is still reasonably narrow, which could suggest that the outcome is not totally unpredictable.

These estimates are interesting, but it can be useful to paint some more broad strokes when seeing how forecasts compare, both to the Emmi's past performance and to peers in the same industry. We can infer from the latest estimates that forecasts expect a continuation of Emmi'shistorical trends, as the 4.0% annualised revenue growth to the end of 2025 is roughly in line with the 4.1% annual growth over the past five years. Compare this with the broader industry, which analyst estimates (in aggregate) suggest will see revenues grow 2.6% annually. So it's pretty clear that Emmi is forecast to grow substantially faster than its 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 major changes to revenue forecasts, with the business still expected to grow faster than the wider industry. The consensus price target held steady at CHF928, with the latest estimates not enough to have an impact on their price targets.

Following on from that line of thought, we think that the long-term prospects of the business are much more relevant than next year's earnings. We have forecasts for Emmi going out to 2027, and you can see them free on our platform here.
