One BEENOS Inc. (TSE:3328) Analyst Is Reducing Their Forecasts For This Year
The analyst covering BEENOS Inc. (TSE:3328) delivered a dose of negativity to shareholders today, by making a substantial revision to their statutory forecasts for this year. Both revenue and earnings per share (EPS) forecasts went under the knife, suggesting the analyst has soured majorly on the business.
After the downgrade, the consensus from BEENOS' solo analyst is for revenues of JP¥24b in 2024, which would reflect a concerning 27% decline in sales compared to the last year of performance. Statutory earnings per share are supposed to nosedive 34% to JP¥99.40 in the same period. Before this latest update, the analyst had been forecasting revenues of JP¥33b and earnings per share (EPS) of JP¥129 in 2024. It looks like analyst sentiment has declined substantially, with a sizeable cut to revenue estimates and a pretty serious decline to earnings per share numbers as well.

Taking a look at the bigger picture now, one of the ways we can understand these forecasts is to see how they compare to both past performance and industry growth estimates. These estimates imply that sales are expected to slow, with a forecast annualised revenue decline of 34% by the end of 2024. This indicates a significant reduction from annual growth of 5.9% 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 5.4% per year. So although its revenues are forecast to shrink, this cloud does not come with a silver lining - BEENOS is expected to lag the wider industry.
The Bottom Line
The most important thing to take away is that the analyst cut their earnings per share estimates, expecting a clear decline in business conditions. Regrettably, they also downgraded their revenue estimates, and the latest forecasts imply the business will grow sales slower than the wider market. Given the serious cut to this year's outlook, it's clear that the analyst has turned more bearish on BEENOS, and we wouldn't blame shareholders for feeling a little more cautious themselves.
Even so, the longer term trajectory of the business is much more important for the value creation of shareholders. At least one analyst has provided forecasts out to 2026, which can be seen for free on our platform here.
