After the latest results, the ten analysts covering AECC Aviation PowerLtd are now predicting revenues of CN¥51.7b in 2024. If met, this would reflect a meaningful 18% improvement in revenue compared to the last 12 months. Per-share earnings are expected to leap 28% to CN¥0.68. Yet prior to the latest earnings, the analysts had been anticipated revenues of CN¥51.4b and earnings per share (EPS) of CN¥0.68 in 2024. So it's pretty clear that, although the analysts have updated their estimates, there's been no major change in expectations for the business following the latest results.

It will come as no surprise then, to learn that the consensus price target is largely unchanged at CN¥46.33. 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 AECC Aviation PowerLtd analyst has a price target of CN¥50.00 per share, while the most pessimistic values it at CN¥42.16. Still, with such a tight range of estimates, it suggeststhe analysts have a pretty good idea of what they think the company is worth.

Factoring in the forecast acceleration in revenue, it's pretty clear that AECC Aviation PowerLtd is expected to grow at about the same rate as the wider industry.
