NasdaqGS:HEPS Earnings and Revenue Growth March 27th 2022

Taking into account the latest results, the current consensus from D-MARKET Elektronik Hizmetler ve Ticaret Anonim Sirketi's six analysts is for revenues of ₺10.2b in 2022, which would reflect a huge 35% increase on its sales over the past 12 months. Losses are forecast to balloon 244% to ₺6.61 per share. Yet prior to the latest earnings, the analysts had been forecasting revenues of ₺10.00b and losses of ₺6.61 per share in 2022.

As a result there was no major change to the consensus price target of US$5.17, implying that the business is trading roughly in line with expectations despite ongoing losses. The consensus price target is just an average of individual analyst targets, so - it could be handy to see how wide the range of underlying estimates is. The most optimistic D-MARKET Elektronik Hizmetler ve Ticaret Anonim Sirketi analyst has a price target of US$7.14 per share, while the most pessimistic values it at US$3.21. 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. We can infer from the latest estimates that forecasts expect a continuation of D-MARKET Elektronik Hizmetler ve Ticaret Anonim Sirketi'shistorical trends, as the 35% annualised revenue growth to the end of 2022 is roughly in line with the 37% annual revenue growth over the past three years. By contrast, our data suggests that other companies (with analyst coverage) in a similar industry are forecast to see their revenues grow 13% per year. So although D-MARKET Elektronik Hizmetler ve Ticaret Anonim Sirketi is expected to maintain its revenue growth rate, it's definitely expected to grow faster than the wider industry.
