It will come as no surprise to learn that the analyst has increased their price target for WinWay Technology 14% to NT$1,258 on the back of these upgrades.

Of course, another way to look at these forecasts is to place them into context against the industry itself. The analyst is definitely expecting WinWay Technology's growth to accelerate, with the forecast 153% annualised growth to the end of 2024 ranking favourably alongside historical growth of 13% per annum over the past five years. Compare this with other companies in the same industry, which are forecast to grow their revenue 17% annually. It seems obvious that, while the growth outlook is brighter than the recent past, the analyst also expect WinWay Technology to grow faster than the wider industry.

The Bottom Line

The most important thing to take away from this upgrade is that the analyst upgraded their earnings per share estimates for this year, expecting improving business conditions. They also upgraded their revenue estimates for this year, and sales are expected to grow faster than the wider market. Given that the consensus looks almost universally bullish, with a substantial increase to forecasts and a higher price target, WinWay Technology could be worth investigating further.
