NYSE:REZI Earnings and Revenue Growth November 10th 2024

Taking into account the latest results, the most recent consensus for Resideo Technologies from four analysts is for revenues of US$7.33b in 2025. If met, it would imply a decent 14% increase on its revenue over the past 12 months. Per-share earnings are expected to bounce 93% to US$2.12. Before this earnings report, the analysts had been forecasting revenues of US$7.19b and earnings per share (EPS) of US$2.08 in 2025. So the consensus seems to have become somewhat more optimistic on Resideo Technologies' earnings potential following these results.

The consensus price target was unchanged at US$26.00, implying that the improved earnings outlook is not expected to have a long term impact on value creation for shareholders. 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. The most optimistic Resideo Technologies analyst has a price target of US$27.00 per share, while the most pessimistic values it at US$25.00. Still, with such a tight range of estimates, it suggeststhe analysts have a pretty good idea of what they think the company is worth.

These estimates are interesting, but it can be useful to paint some more broad strokes when seeing how forecasts compare, both to the Resideo Technologies' past performance and to peers in the same industry. The analysts are definitely expecting Resideo Technologies' growth to accelerate, with the forecast 11% annualised growth to the end of 2025 ranking favourably alongside historical growth of 6.1% per annum over the past five years. Compare this with other companies in the same industry, which are forecast to grow their revenue 5.3% annually. Factoring in the forecast acceleration in revenue, it's pretty clear that Resideo Technologies is expected to grow much faster than its industry.

The Bottom Line

The most important thing here is that the analysts upgraded their earnings per share estimates, suggesting that there has been a clear increase in optimism towards Resideo Technologies following these results. Fortunately, they also reconfirmed their revenue numbers, suggesting that it's tracking in line with expectations. Additionally, our data suggests that revenue is expected to grow faster than the wider industry. The consensus price target held steady at US$26.00, 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 Resideo Technologies going out to 2026, and you can see them free on our platform here..
