The Consensus EPS Estimates For Commercial Vehicle Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:CVGI) Just Fell Dramatically

In This Article:

Today is shaping up negative for Commercial Vehicle Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:CVGI) shareholders, with the analysts delivering a substantial negative revision to next year's forecasts. Revenue and earnings per share (EPS) forecasts were both revised downwards, with the analysts seeing grey clouds on the horizon.

After the downgrade, the consensus from Commercial Vehicle Group's dual analysts is for revenues of US$680m in 2025, which would reflect a stressful 25% decline in sales compared to the last year of performance. Statutory earnings per share are supposed to crater 88% to US$0.10 in the same period. Previously, the analysts had been modelling revenues of US$985m and earnings per share (EPS) of US$0.97 in 2025. Indeed, we can see that the analysts are a lot more bearish about Commercial Vehicle Group's prospects, administering a pretty serious reduction to revenue estimates and slashing their EPS estimates to boot.

It'll come as no surprise then, to learn that the analysts have cut their price target 14% to US$6.33.

Taking a look at the bigger picture now, one of the ways we can understand these forecasts is to see how they compare to both past performance and industry growth estimates. These estimates imply that sales are expected to slow, with a forecast annualised revenue decline of 21% by the end of 2025. This indicates a significant reduction from annual growth of 3.6% over the last five years. Compare this with our data, which suggests that other companies in the same industry are, in aggregate, expected to see their revenue grow 3.1% per year. It's pretty clear that Commercial Vehicle Group's revenues are expected to perform substantially worse than the wider industry.

The Bottom Line

The biggest issue in the new estimates is that analysts have reduced their earnings per share estimates, suggesting business headwinds lay ahead for Commercial Vehicle Group. Regrettably, they also downgraded their revenue estimates, and the latest forecasts imply the business will grow sales slower than the wider market. Given the scope of the downgrades, it would not be a surprise to see the market become more wary of the business.
