Shareholders will be ecstatic, with their stake up 26% over the past week following ATOSS Software SE's (ETR:AOF) latest quarterly results. ATOSS Software reported in line with analyst predictions, delivering revenues of €52m and statutory earnings per share of €3.04, suggesting the business is executing well and in line with its plan. Following the result, the analysts have updated their earnings model, and it would be good to know whether they think there's been a strong change in the company's prospects, or if it's business as usual. We've gathered the most recent statutory forecasts to see whether the analysts have changed their earnings models, following these results.
Taking into account the latest results, the current consensus from ATOSS Software's eight analysts is for revenues of €213.8m in 2026. This would reflect a satisfactory 6.7% increase on its revenue over the past 12 months. Statutory per-share earnings are expected to be €3.28, roughly flat on the last 12 months. In the lead-up to this report, the analysts had been modelling revenues of €214.1m and earnings per share (EPS) of €3.26 in 2026. The consensus analysts don't seem to have seen anything in these results that would have changed their view on the business, given there's been no major change to their estimates.

The analysts reconfirmed their price target of €122, showing that the business is executing well and in line with expectations. That's not the only conclusion we can draw from this data however, as some investors also like to consider the spread in estimates when evaluating analyst price targets. The most optimistic ATOSS Software analyst has a price target of €157 per share, while the most pessimistic values it at €91.00. Analysts definitely have varying views on the business, but the spread of estimates is not wide enough in our view to suggest that extreme outcomes could await ATOSS Software shareholders.
One way to get more context on these forecasts is to look at how they compare to both past performance, and how other companies in the same industry are performing. The period to the end of 2026 brings more of the same, according to the analysts, with revenue forecast to display 14% growth on an annualised basis. That is in line with its 16% annual growth over the past five years. By contrast, our data suggests that other companies (with analyst coverage) in a similar industry are forecast to see their revenues grow 11% per year. So it's pretty clear that ATOSS Software is forecast to grow substantially faster than its industry.
The Bottom Line
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. Happily, there were no major changes to revenue forecasts, with the business still expected to grow faster than the wider industry. The consensus price target held steady at €122, with the latest estimates not enough to have an impact on their price targets.
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 forecasts for ATOSS Software going out to 2028, and you can see them free on our platform here.
