After the latest results, the three analysts covering Route Mobile are now predicting revenues of ₹47.8b in 2025. If met, this would reflect a decent 18% improvement in revenue compared to the last 12 months. Statutory earnings per share are predicted to expand 12% to ₹67.00. In the lead-up to this report, the analysts had been modelling revenues of ₹48.7b and earnings per share (EPS) of ₹67.83 in 2025. The consensus analysts don't seem to have seen anything in these results that would have changed their view on the business, given there's been no major change to their estimates.
The analysts reconfirmed their price target of ₹1,817, showing that the business is executing well and in line with expectations. The consensus price target is just an average of individual analyst targets, so - it could be handy to see how wide the range of underlying estimates is. Currently, the most bullish analyst values Route Mobile at ₹1,930 per share, while the most bearish prices it at ₹1,700. The narrow spread of estimates could suggest that the business' future is relatively easy to value, or thatthe analysts have a strong view on its prospects.
Another way we can view these estimates is in the context of the bigger picture, such as how the forecasts stack up against past performance, and whether forecasts are more or less bullish relative to other companies in the industry. It's pretty clear that there is an expectation that Route Mobile's revenue growth will slow down substantially, with revenues to the end of 2025 expected to display 18% growth on an annualised basis. This is compared to a historical growth rate of 35% over the past five years. Juxtapose this against the other companies in the industry with analyst coverage, which are forecast to grow their revenues (in aggregate) 14% per year. Even after the forecast slowdown in growth, it seems obvious that Route Mobile is also expected to grow faster than the wider industry.
The Bottom Line
The most important thing to take away is that there's been no major change in sentiment, with the analysts reconfirming that the business is performing in line with their previous earnings per share estimates. Fortunately, they also reconfirmed their revenue numbers, suggesting that it's tracking in line with expectations. Additionally, our data suggests that revenue is expected to grow faster than the wider industry. The consensus price target held steady at ₹1,817, with the latest estimates not enough to have an impact on their price targets.
