Taking into account the latest results, the consensus forecast from Bank7's three analysts is for revenues of US$97.7m in 2026. This reflects a credible 2.0% improvement in revenue compared to the last 12 months. Statutory earnings per share are forecast to reduce 8.6% to US$4.20 in the same period. In the lead-up to this report, the analysts had been modelling revenues of US$98.4m and earnings per share (EPS) of US$4.18 in 2026. So it's pretty clear that, although the analysts have updated their estimates, there's been no major change in expectations for the business following the latest results.

It will come as no surprise then, to learn that the consensus price target is largely unchanged at US$52.67. It could also be instructive to look at the range of analyst estimates, to evaluate how different the outlier opinions are from the mean. The most optimistic Bank7 analyst has a price target of US$55.00 per share, while the most pessimistic values it at US$50.00. 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.

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. It's pretty clear that there is an expectation that Bank7's revenue growth will slow down substantially, with revenues to the end of 2026 expected to display 1.6% growth on an annualised basis. This is compared to a historical growth rate of 17% over the past five years. Compare this against other companies (with analyst forecasts) in the industry, which are in aggregate expected to see revenue growth of 7.7% 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 Bank7.

The Bottom Line

The most obvious conclusion is that there's been no major change in the business' prospects in recent times, with the analysts holding their earnings forecasts steady, in line with previous estimates. On the plus side, there were no major changes to revenue estimates; although forecasts imply they will perform worse than the wider industry. The consensus price target held steady at US$52.67, with the latest estimates not enough to have an impact on their price targets.

Following on from that line of thought, we think that the long-term prospects of the business are much more relevant than next year's earnings. At Simply Wall St, we have a full range of analyst estimates for Bank7 going out to 2027, and you can see them free on our platform here..
