Published
BIT:MONC

As you might know, Moncler S.p.A. (BIT:MONC) recently reported its interim numbers. It was an okay report, and revenues came in at €1.2b, approximately in line with analyst estimates leading up to the results announcement. The analysts typically update their forecasts at each earnings report, and we can judge from their estimates whether their view of the company has changed or if there are any new concerns to be aware of. So we collected the latest post-earnings statutory consensus estimates to see what could be in store for next year.

BIT:MONC Earnings and Revenue Growth July 27th 2024

Taking into account the latest results, the current consensus from Moncler's 22 analysts is for revenues of €3.17b in 2024. This would reflect a satisfactory 3.1% increase on its revenue over the past 12 months. Before this earnings report, the analysts had been forecasting revenues of €3.19b and earnings per share (EPS) of €2.39 in 2024. Overall, while the analysts have reconfirmed their revenue estimates, the consensus now no longer provides an EPS estimate. This implies that the market believes revenue is more important after these latest results.

We'd also point out that thatthe analysts have made no major changes to their price target of €66.33. 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. There are some variant perceptions on Moncler, with the most bullish analyst valuing it at €79.00 and the most bearish at €47.50 per share. These price targets show that analysts do have some differing views on the business, but the estimates do not vary enough to suggest to us that some are betting on wild success or utter failure.

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. We would highlight that Moncler's revenue growth is expected to slow, with the forecast 6.4% annualised growth rate until the end of 2024 being well below the historical 18% p.a. growth over the last five years. Compare this against other companies (with analyst forecasts) in the industry, which are in aggregate expected to see revenue growth of 8.5% annually. So it's pretty clear that, while revenue growth is expected to slow down, the wider industry is also expected to grow faster than Moncler.

The Bottom Line

The most important thing to take away is that the analysts reconfirmed their revenue estimates for next year, suggesting that the business is performing in line with expectations. 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.
