Analysts Just Slashed Their Angel One Limited (NSE:ANGELONE) EPS Numbers

The analysts covering Angel One Limited (NSE:ANGELONE) delivered a dose of negativity to shareholders today, by making a substantial revision to their statutory forecasts for next year. Revenue and earnings per share (EPS) forecasts were both revised downwards, with the analysts seeing grey clouds on the horizon.

Following the latest downgrade, the seven analysts covering Angel One provided consensus estimates of ₹48b revenue in 2026, which would reflect a considerable 9.8% decline on its sales over the past 12 months. Statutory earnings per share are supposed to reduce 3.7% to ₹143 in the same period. Prior to this update, the analysts had been forecasting revenues of ₹55b and earnings per share (EPS) of ₹172 in 2026. Indeed, we can see that the analysts are a lot more bearish about Angel One's prospects, administering a measurable cut to revenue estimates and slashing their EPS estimates to boot.

The consensus price target fell 18% to ₹2,799, with the weaker earnings outlook clearly leading analyst valuation estimates.

These estimates are interesting, but it can be useful to paint some more broad strokes when seeing how forecasts compare, both to the Angel One's past performance and to peers in the same industry. These estimates imply that sales are expected to slow, with a forecast annualised revenue decline of 7.9% by the end of 2026. This indicates a significant reduction from annual growth of 37% over the last five years. Compare this with our data, which suggests that other companies in the same industry are, in aggregate, expected to see their revenue grow 13% per year. So although its revenues are forecast to shrink, this cloud does not come with a silver lining - Angel One is expected to lag the wider industry.

The Bottom Line

The biggest issue in the new estimates is that analysts have reduced their earnings per share estimates, suggesting business headwinds lay ahead for Angel One. Unfortunately analysts also downgraded their revenue estimates, and industry data suggests that Angel One's revenues are expected to grow slower than the wider market. After such a stark change in sentiment from analysts, we'd understand if readers now felt a bit wary of Angel One.

As you can see, the analysts clearly aren't bullish, and there might be good reason for that. We've identified some potential issues with Angel One's financials, such as the risk of cutting its dividend.
