The annual results for Daiwabo Holdings Co., Ltd. (TSE:3107) were released last week, making it a good time to revisit its performance. Results were roughly in line with estimates, with revenues of JP¥1.4t and statutory earnings per share of JP¥362. Earnings are an important time for investors, as they can track a company's performance, look at what the analysts are forecasting for next year, and see if there's been a change in sentiment towards the company. We've gathered the most recent statutory forecasts to see whether the analysts have changed their earnings models, following these results.
After the latest results, the consensus from Daiwabo Holdings' two analysts is for revenues of JP¥1.12t in 2027, which would reflect a not inconsiderable 17% decline in revenue compared to the last year of performance. Statutory earnings per share are forecast to nosedive 22% to JP¥287 in the same period. Before this earnings report, the analysts had been forecasting revenues of JP¥1.10t and earnings per share (EPS) of JP¥283 in 2027. There doesn't appear to have been a major change in sentiment following the results, other than the small increase to revenue estimates.

Even though revenue forecasts increased, there was no change to the consensus price target of JP¥3,500, suggesting the analysts are focused on earnings as the driver of value creation.
Of course, another way to look at these forecasts is to place them into context against the industry itself. These estimates imply that revenue is expected to slow, with a forecast annualised decline of 17% by the end of 2027. This indicates a significant reduction from annual growth of 8.1% over the last five years. By contrast, our data suggests that other companies (with analyst coverage) in the same industry are forecast to see their revenue grow 7.8% annually for the foreseeable future. So although its revenues are forecast to shrink, this cloud does not come with a silver lining - Daiwabo Holdings is expected to lag the wider industry.
The Bottom Line
The most obvious conclusion is that there's been no major change in the business' prospects in recent times, with the analysts holding their earnings forecasts steady, in line with previous estimates. They also upgraded their revenue estimates for next year, even though it is expected to grow slower than the wider industry. There was no real change to the consensus price target, suggesting that the intrinsic value of the business has not undergone any major changes with the latest estimates.
Following on from that line of thought, we think that the long-term prospects of the business are much more relevant than next year's earnings. We have analyst estimates for Daiwabo Holdings going out as far as 2029, and you can see them free on our platform here.
