kr60.00 - That's What Analysts Think FastPartner AB (publ) (STO:FPAR A) Is Worth After These Results

As you might know, FastPartner AB (publ) (STO:FPAR A) recently reported its third-quarter numbers. Results were roughly in line with estimates, with revenues of kr569m and statutory earnings per share of kr3.14. Earnings are an important time for investors, as they can track a company's performance, look at what the analysts are forecasting for next year, and see if there's been a change in sentiment towards the company. So we collected the latest post-earnings statutory consensus estimates to see what could be in store for next year.

Trump has pledged to "unleash" American oil and gas and these 15 US stocks have developments that are poised to benefit.

Following last week's earnings report, FastPartner's three analysts are forecasting 2026 revenues to be kr2.25b, approximately in line with the last 12 months. Statutory earnings per share are predicted to shoot up 123% to kr5.09. Before this earnings report, the analysts had been forecasting revenues of kr2.24b and earnings per share (EPS) of kr5.15 in 2026. 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 consensus price target rose 15% to kr60.00despite there being no meaningful change to earnings estimates. It could be that the analystsare reflecting the predictability of FastPartner's earnings by assigning a price premium. There's another way to think about price targets though, and that's to look at the range of price targets put forward by analysts, because a wide range of estimates could suggest a diverse view on possible outcomes for the business. There are some variant perceptions on FastPartner, with the most bullish analyst valuing it at kr65.00 and the most bearish at kr55.00 per share. Still, with such a tight range of estimates, it suggeststhe analysts have a pretty good idea of what they think the company is worth.

Looking at the bigger picture now, one of the ways we can make sense of these forecasts is to see how they measure up against both past performance and industry growth estimates. We would highlight that revenue is expected to reverse, with a forecast 0.5% annualised decline to the end of 2026. That is a notable change from historical growth of 5.8% over the last five years. By contrast, our data suggests that other companies (with analyst coverage) in the same industry are forecast to see their revenue grow 4.9% annually for the foreseeable future. It's pretty clear that FastPartner's revenues are expected to perform substantially worse 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. 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 also a nice increase in the price target, with the analysts clearly feeling that the intrinsic value of the business is improving.

Keeping that in mind, we still think that the longer term trajectory of the business is much more important for investors to consider. At Simply Wall St, we have a full range of analyst estimates for FastPartner going out to 2027, and you can see them free on our platform here..
