Model Commentary
That view is based on 4 analysts. Low agreement means the Street is still split on the likely outcome. Analyst targets and forecasts can change quickly after new company or market information.

Yearly Revenue and 2-Year Forecast

Reported revenue for the last 5 years, followed by low, consensus, and high analyst revenue estimates for the next two years. Consensus revenue implies +5.9% YoY growth tight ranges on revenue estimates

Model Commentary
Revenue is projected to move from 1.7B last year to 1.7B in 2026E and 1.8B in 2027E. That implies +5.1% into 2026E and +5.9% into 2027E on the top line. The 2027E range of 1.8B to 1.9B suggests tight ranges on revenue expectations. Revenue misses can lead to EPS estimate revisions and changes in valuation assumptions. Forecast ranges reflect uncertainty and should be read alongside risk metrics.

2-Year EPS Estimates

Low, consensus, and high analyst EPS estimates for the next two fiscal years. Consensus EPS implies +11.4% YoY growth tight ranges on EPS estimates

Model Commentary
Analysts are currently looking for $0.00 in 2026E and $0.00 in 2027E. The outer-year range runs from $0.00 to $0.00, which counts as tight ranges. Consensus currently models +11.4% EPS growth over the next period. EPS estimates are subject to revision and do not guarantee future results.
