Can we expect Sirius XM Holdings to keep growing?

The view from 13 analysts over the next three years is one of positive sentiment. Given that it becomes hard to forecast far into the future, broker analysts tend to project ahead roughly three years. To reduce the year-on-year volatility of analyst earnings forecast, I've inserted a line of best fit through the expected earnings figures to determine the annual growth rate from the slope of the line.

This results in an annual growth rate of 12% based on the most recent earnings level of US$1.2b to the final forecast of US$1.5b by 2022. EPS reaches $0.32 in the final year of forecast compared to the current $0.26 EPS today. However, the expansion of the current 20% margin is not expected to be sustained, as it begins to contract to 18% by the end of 2022.
