Taking into account the latest results, the consensus forecast from Markforged Holding's four analysts is for revenues of US$97.6m in 2024. This reflects a credible 4.1% improvement in revenue compared to the last 12 months. Losses are predicted to fall substantially, shrinking 42% to US$0.30. Before this latest report, the consensus had been expecting revenues of US$95.2m and US$0.32 per share in losses. So there seems to have been a moderate uplift in analyst sentiment with the latest consensus release, given the upgrades to both revenue and loss per share forecasts for this year.
考虑到最新业绩,Markforged Holding的四位分析师的共识预测是,2024年的收入为9,760万美元。这反映了与过去12个月相比,收入的可信增长了4.1%。预计亏损将大幅下降,萎缩42%,至0.30美元。在这份最新报告之前,共识一直预计收入为9,520万美元,每股亏损0.32美元。因此,鉴于今年的收入和每股亏损预测均有所上调,最新共识发布后,分析师的情绪似乎略有提高。
Yet despite these upgrades, the analysts cut their price target 34% to US$1.32, implicitly signalling that the ongoing losses are likely to weigh negatively on Markforged Holding's valuation. There's another way to think about price targets though, and that's to look at the range of price targets put forward by analysts, because a wide range of estimates could suggest a diverse view on possible outcomes for the business. The most optimistic Markforged Holding analyst has a price target of US$1.50 per share, while the most pessimistic values it at US$1.00. There are definitely some different views on the stock, but the range of estimates is not wide enough as to imply that the situation is unforecastable, in our view.
然而,尽管进行了这些上调,但分析师仍将目标股价下调了34%,至1.32美元,这暗示持续的亏损可能会对Markforged Holding的估值造成负面影响。但是,还有另一种思考价格目标的方法,那就是研究分析师提出的价格目标范围,因为范围广泛的估计可能表明,对业务可能的结果有不同的看法。最乐观的Markforged Holding分析师将目标股价定为每股1.50美元,而最悲观的分析师则将其估值为1.00美元。对该股肯定有一些不同的看法,但在我们看来,估计范围还不够广,不足以暗示情况不可预测。
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 Markforged Holding's revenue growth is expected to slow, with the forecast 4.1% annualised growth rate until the end of 2024 being well below the historical 10% p.a. growth over the last three years. Juxtapose this against the other companies in the industry with analyst coverage, which are forecast to grow their revenues (in aggregate) 3.4% annually. So it's pretty clear that, while Markforged Holding's revenue growth is expected to slow, it's expected to grow roughly in line with the industry.
从现在的大局来看,我们可以理解这些预测的方法之一是看看它们如何与过去的业绩和行业增长预期相比较。我们要强调的是,预计Markforged Holding的收入增长将放缓,预计到2024年底的年化增长率为4.1%,远低于过去三年来历史上10%的年增长率。将其与业内其他有分析师报道的公司并列,预计这些公司的收入(总计)每年将增长3.4%。因此,很明显,尽管Markforged Holding的收入增长预计将放缓,但预计其增长将与行业大致持平。
The Bottom Line
底线
The most important thing to take away is that the analysts reconfirmed their loss per share estimates for next year. They also upgraded their revenue forecasts, although the latest estimates suggest that Markforged Holding will grow in line with the overall industry. The consensus price target fell measurably, with the analysts seemingly not reassured by the latest results, leading to a lower estimate of Markforged Holding's future valuation.
要了解的最重要的一点是,分析师重申了明年的每股亏损预期。他们还上调了收入预测,尽管最新的估计表明Markforged Holding将与整个行业保持同步增长。共识目标股价大幅下降,最新业绩似乎并未让分析师放心,这导致对Markforged Holding未来估值的估计降低。
With that said, the long-term trajectory of the company's earnings is a lot more important than next year. We have estimates - from multiple Markforged Holding analysts - going out to 2025, and you can see them free on our platform here.
