As you might know, Diös Fastigheter AB (publ) (STO:DIOS) recently reported its quarterly numbers. Diös Fastigheter reported in line with analyst predictions, delivering revenues of kr652m and statutory earnings per share of kr5.70, suggesting the business is executing well and in line with its plan. The analysts typically update their forecasts at each earnings report, and we can judge from their estimates whether their view of the company has changed or if there are any new concerns to be aware of. We thought readers would find it interesting to see the analysts latest (statutory) post-earnings forecasts for next year.
Taking into account the latest results, Diös Fastigheter's three analysts currently expect revenues in 2027 to be kr2.65b, approximately in line with the last 12 months. Statutory earnings per share are forecast to dive 25% to kr6.36 in the same period. In the lead-up to this report, the analysts had been modelling revenues of kr2.70b and earnings per share (EPS) of kr6.47 in 2027. 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 consensus price target fell 6.7% to kr70.00, suggesting that the analysts might have been a bit enthusiastic in their previous valuation - or they were expecting the company to provide stronger guidance in the quarterly results. There's another way to think about price targets though, and that's to look at the range of price targets put forward by analysts, because a wide range of estimates could suggest a diverse view on possible outcomes for the business. The most optimistic Diös Fastigheter analyst has a price target of kr80.00 per share, while the most pessimistic values it at kr60.00. The narrow spread of estimates could suggest that the business' future is relatively easy to value, or thatthe analysts have a strong view on its prospects.
Another way we can view these estimates is in the context of the bigger picture, such as how the forecasts stack up against past performance, and whether forecasts are more or less bullish relative to other companies in the industry. We would highlight that Diös Fastigheter's revenue growth is expected to slow, with the forecast 0.007% annualised growth rate until the end of 2027 being well below the historical 6.4% p.a. growth over the last five years. By way of comparison, the other companies in this industry with analyst coverage are forecast to grow their revenue at 3.0% per year. Factoring in the forecast slowdown in growth, it seems obvious that Diös Fastigheter is also expected to grow slower than other industry participants.
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. On the plus side, there were no major changes to revenue estimates; although forecasts imply they will perform worse than the wider industry. Furthermore, the analysts also cut their price targets, suggesting that the latest news has led to greater pessimism about the intrinsic value of the business.
With that in mind, we wouldn't be too quick to come to a conclusion on Diös Fastigheter. Long-term earnings power is much more important than next year's profits. We have forecasts for Diös Fastigheter going out to 2028, and you can see them free on our platform here.
