How will AURES Technologies perform in the near future?

The view from 3 analysts over the next three years is one of positive sentiment. Since forecasting becomes more difficult further into the future, broker analysts generally project out to around three years. To get an idea of the overall earnings growth trend for AURS, I’ve plotted out each year’s earnings expectations and inserted a line of best fit to determine an annual rate of growth from the slope of this line.

This results in an annual growth rate of 10% based on the most recent earnings level of €8.1m to the final forecast of €10m by 2022. This leads to an EPS of €2.6 in the final year of projections relative to the current EPS of €2.05. This initial high-growth revenue squeezes AURS's margins. However, analysts are expecting earnings growth to catch up, and current margins of 7.9% to expand to 8.0% by the end of 2022.
