Taking into account the latest results, Panostaja Oyj's single analyst currently expect revenues in 2025 to be €132.0m, approximately in line with the last 12 months. Panostaja Oyj is also expected to turn profitable, with statutory earnings of €0.02 per share. Before this earnings report, the analyst had been forecasting revenues of €133.3m and earnings per share (EPS) of €0.03 in 2025. The analyst seem to have become more bearish following the latest results. While there were no changes to revenue forecasts, there was a pretty serious reduction to EPS estimates.

It might be a surprise to learn that the consensus price target was broadly unchanged at €0.50, with the analyst clearly implying that the forecast decline in earnings is not expected to have much of an impact on valuation.

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. One thing that stands out from these estimates is that shrinking revenues are expected to moderate over the period ending 2025 compared to the historical decline of 5.4% per annum over the past five years. Compare this against analyst estimates for companies in the broader industry, which suggest that revenues (in aggregate) are expected to grow 4.4% annually. So while a broad number of companies are forecast to grow, unfortunately Panostaja Oyj is expected to see its revenue affected worse than other companies in the industry.

The Bottom Line

The most important thing to take away is that the analyst downgraded their earnings per share estimates, showing that there has been a clear decline in sentiment following these results. On the plus side, there were no major changes to revenue estimates; although forecasts imply they will perform worse than the wider industry. There was no real change to the consensus price target, suggesting that the intrinsic value of the business has not undergone any major changes with the latest estimates.

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 analyst estimates for Panostaja Oyj going out as far as 2027, and you can see them free on our platform here.
