ENXTPA:ALINN Earnings and Revenue Growth June 15th 2024

Following the recent earnings report, the consensus from two analysts covering Innelec Multimédia is for revenues of €169.7m in 2025. This implies a considerable 9.3% decline in revenue compared to the last 12 months. Yet prior to the latest earnings, the analysts had been anticipated revenues of €183.8m and earnings per share (EPS) of €0.93 in 2025. Overall, while there's been a small dip in revenue estimates, the consensus now no longer provides an EPS estimate. This implies that the market believes revenue is more important following the latest results.

Intriguingly,the analysts have cut their price target 13% to €9.00 showing a clear decline in sentiment around Innelec Multimédia's valuation.

Looking at the bigger picture now, one of the ways we can make sense of these forecasts is to see how they measure up against both past performance and industry growth estimates. These estimates imply that revenue is expected to slow, with a forecast annualised decline of 9.3% by the end of 2025. This indicates a significant reduction from annual growth of 13% over the last five years. By contrast, our data suggests that other companies (with analyst coverage) in the same industry are forecast to see their revenue grow 18% annually for the foreseeable future. So although its revenues are forecast to shrink, this cloud does not come with a silver lining - Innelec Multimédia is expected to lag the wider industry.

The Bottom Line

The most important thing to take away is that the analysts downgraded their revenue estimates for next year. Unfortunately, they also downgraded their revenue estimates, and our data indicates it is expected to perform worse than the wider industry. The consensus price target fell measurably, with the analysts seemingly not reassured by the latest results, leading to a lower estimate of Innelec Multimédia's future valuation.
