BYIT: UBS Downgrade And Lower P/E Will Pressure Future Returns

Analysts have reduced their fair value estimate for Bytes Technology Group from £3.80 to £2.56, citing a higher required discount rate, more conservative profit margin assumptions and a lower future P/E multiple, partly reflected in a recent UBS downgrade referenced in Street research. Analyst Commentary Bearish analysts have pointed to the recent fair value cut, from £3.80 to £2.56, as a sign that the risk and reward profile for Bytes Technology Group looks less compelling on their models.
