Check out our latest analysis for About You Holding
Taking into account the latest results, the current consensus from About You Holding's ten analysts is for revenues of €2.11b in 2025. This would reflect a decent 10% increase on its revenue over the past 12 months. The loss per share is expected to greatly reduce in the near future, narrowing 62% to €0.31. Before this latest report, the consensus had been expecting revenues of €2.14b and €0.31 per share in losses.
The consensus price target was unchanged at €5.81, suggesting that the business - losses and all - is executing in line with estimates. Fixating on a single price target can be unwise though, since the consensus target is effectively the average of analyst price targets. As a result, some investors like to look at the range of estimates to see if there are any diverging opinions on the company's valuation. There are some variant perceptions on About You Holding, with the most bullish analyst valuing it at €7.50 and the most bearish at €4.10 per share. These price targets show that analysts do have some differing views on the business, but the estimates do not vary enough to suggest to us that some are betting on wild success or utter failure.
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 would highlight that About You Holding's revenue growth is expected to slow, with the forecast 8.1% annualised growth rate until the end of 2025 being well below the historical 15% p.a. growth over the last three years. By way of comparison, the other companies in this industry with analyst coverage are forecast to grow their revenue at 6.1% annually. Even after the forecast slowdown in growth, it seems obvious that About You Holding is also expected to grow faster than the wider industry.
