Longer term expectations from the 22 analysts covering AMS’s stock is one of positive sentiment. Given that it becomes hard to forecast far into the future, broker analysts tend to project ahead roughly three years.

BME:AMS Future Profit Mar 22nd 18
BME:AMS Future Profit Mar 22nd 18
This results in an annual growth rate of 5.61% based on the most recent earnings level of €1.00B to the final forecast of €1.20B by 2021. This leads to an EPS of €2.79 in the final year of projections relative to the current EPS of €2.29. The main reason for growth is a result of reduction in costs rather than purely top-line expansion as earnings is increasing at a faster rate. In 2021, AMS's profit margin will have expanded from 20.67% to 20.84%.
