Taking into account the latest results, the current consensus from NTG Nordic Transport Group's five analysts is for revenues of kr.10.9b in 2025. This would reflect a notable 16% increase on its revenue over the past 12 months. Per-share earnings are expected to surge 26% to kr.17.51. Before this earnings report, the analysts had been forecasting revenues of kr.10.3b and earnings per share (EPS) of kr.18.70 in 2025. So it's pretty clear consensus is mixed on NTG Nordic Transport Group after the latest results; whilethe analysts lifted revenue numbers, they also administered a minor downgrade to per-share earnings expectations.

There's been no major changes to the price target of kr.375, suggesting that the impact of higher forecast revenue and lower earnings won't result in a meaningful change to the business' valuation. 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. There are some variant perceptions on NTG Nordic Transport Group, with the most bullish analyst valuing it at kr.400 and the most bearish at kr.351 per share. Still, with such a tight range of estimates, it suggeststhe analysts have a pretty good idea of what they think the company is worth.

One way to get more context on these forecasts is to look at how they compare to both past performance, and how other companies in the same industry are performing. It's clear from the latest estimates that NTG Nordic Transport Group's rate of growth is expected to accelerate meaningfully, with the forecast 16% annualised revenue growth to the end of 2025 noticeably faster than its historical growth of 12% p.a. over the past five years. Compare this with other companies in the same industry, which are forecast to grow their revenue 2.2% annually. It seems obvious that, while the growth outlook is brighter than the recent past, the analysts also expect NTG Nordic Transport Group to grow faster than the wider industry.

The Bottom Line

The biggest concern is that the analysts reduced their earnings per share estimates, suggesting business headwinds could lay ahead for NTG Nordic Transport Group. Happily, they also upgraded their revenue estimates, and are forecasting them to grow faster than the wider industry. The consensus price target held steady at kr.375, with the latest estimates not enough to have an impact on their price targets.
