Analysts' outlook for next year seems pessimistic, with earnings falling by -0.2%. But in the following year, there is a complete contrast in performance, with reaching double digit 6.0% compared to today’s level and continues to increase to €21m in 2022.
Even though it’s helpful to be aware of the rate of growth year by year relative to today’s value, it may be more beneficial to evaluate the rate at which the company is moving on average every year. The advantage of this approach is that we can get a better picture of the direction of Massimo Zanetti Beverage Group's earnings trajectory over the long run, irrespective of near term fluctuations, which may be more relevant for long term investors. To calculate this rate, I've appended a line of best fit through the forecasted earnings by market analysts. The slope of this line is the rate of earnings growth, which in this case is 2.9%.
