Results: Barrett Business Services, Inc. Exceeded Expectations And The Consensus Has Updated Its Estimates
Barrett Business Services, Inc. (NASDAQ:BBSI) just released its latest third-quarter results and things are looking bullish. Results were good overall, with revenues beating analyst predictions by 2.4% to hit US$294m. Statutory earnings per share (EPS) came in at US$0.74, some 8.0% above whatthe analysts had expected. This is an important time for investors, as they can track a company's performance in its report, look at what experts are forecasting for next year, and see if there has been any change to expectations for the business. With this in mind, we've gathered the latest statutory forecasts to see what the analysts are expecting for next year.
barrett business services公司(納斯達克股票代碼:BBSI)剛剛發佈了最新的第三季度業績,形勢看好。總體而言,業績表現良好,營業收入超出分析師預測2.4%,達到29400萬美元。每股收益達到了0.74美元,比分析師預期高出8.0%。對於投資者來說,現在是一個重要時刻,他們可以通過報告跟蹤公司的表現,查看專家們對明年的預測,並了解對業務的預期是否有任何變化。基於這一點,我們彙集了最新的法定預測,以了解分析師對明年的預期。
After the latest results, the four analysts covering Barrett Business Services are now predicting revenues of US$1.22b in 2025. If met, this would reflect a solid 8.9% improvement in revenue compared to the last 12 months. Per-share earnings are expected to grow 14% to US$2.21. In the lead-up to this report, the analysts had been modelling revenues of US$1.23b and earnings per share (EPS) of US$2.21 in 2025. So it's pretty clear that, although the analysts have updated their estimates, there's been no major change in expectations for the business following the latest results.
在最新的業績公佈之後,覆蓋barrett business services的四位分析師現在預測其2025年的營業收入爲12.2億美元。如果實現,這將反映出營業收入較過去12個月增長了8.9%。每股盈利預計將增長14%,達到2.21美元。在此報告發布之前,分析師曾模擬了2025年的營業收入爲12.3億美元,每股收益2.21美元。因此,很顯然,儘管分析師已更新其估算,但在最新的業績公佈後,對業務的預期並沒有發生重大變化。
The consensus price target rose 9.4% to US$43.50despite there being no meaningful change to earnings estimates. It could be that the analystsare reflecting the predictability of Barrett Business Services' earnings by assigning a price premium. The consensus price target is just an average of individual analyst targets, so - it could be handy to see how wide the range of underlying estimates is. The most optimistic Barrett Business Services analyst has a price target of US$45.00 per share, while the most pessimistic values it at US$40.00. With such a narrow range of valuations, the analysts apparently share similar views on what they think the business is worth.
儘管收益預測沒有發生實質性變化,但共識價格目標上升了9.4%,達到43.50美元。這可能是因爲分析師正在反映barrett business services的收益可預期性,從而給予溢價。共識價格目標僅是個別分析師目標的平均值,因此,了解基礎估值範圍的寬窄可能會有所幫助。最樂觀的barrett business services分析師給出的價格目標爲45.00美元/股,而最悲觀者給出的價格目標爲40.00美元/股。由於估值範圍非常有限,分析師顯然對他們認爲該業務的價值持有類似觀點。
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. The analysts are definitely expecting Barrett Business Services' growth to accelerate, with the forecast 7.1% annualised growth to the end of 2025 ranking favourably alongside historical growth of 4.6% per annum over the past five years. Other similar companies in the industry (with analyst coverage) are also forecast to grow their revenue at 5.7% per year. Barrett Business Services is expected to grow at about the same rate as its industry, so it's not clear that we can draw any conclusions from its growth relative to competitors.
現在從更大的角度來看,我們可以通過將這些預測與過去的績效和行業增長預期進行比較來理解它們。 分析師們明顯預計 barrett business services 的增長將加速,預計到 2025 年底的年化增長率爲 7.1%,與過去五年的年均增長率 4.6% 相比排名靠前。 行業中的其他類似公司(受到分析師覆蓋)也預計每年增長 5.7% 的營業收入。 預計 barrett business services 的增長速度與其行業相當,因此我們無法就其增速相對競爭對手得出任何結論。
The Bottom Line
最重要的事情是分析師增加了它對下一年每股虧損的估計。令人欣慰的是,營收預測未發生重大變化,業務仍有望比整個行業增長更快。共識價格目標穩定在28.50美元,最新估計不足以對價格目標產生影響。
The most important thing to take away is that there's been no major change in sentiment, with the analysts reconfirming that the business is performing in line with their previous earnings per share estimates. They also reconfirmed their revenue estimates, with the company predicted to grow at about the same rate as the wider industry. There was also a nice increase in the price target, with the analysts clearly feeling that the intrinsic value of the business is improving.
最重要的是,市場情緒沒有發生重大變化,分析師們重新確認業務的表現與其先前的每股收益估計相符。 他們還重申了對營業收入的預期,公司預計增長速度與更廣泛的行業大致相同。 價格目標也有一個不錯的增長,分析師明顯覺得該公司的內在價值正在提高。
