Today is shaping up negative for Tigo Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:TYGO) shareholders, with the analysts delivering a substantial negative revision to next year's forecasts. Both revenue and earnings per share (EPS) forecasts went under the knife, suggesting the analysts have soured majorly on the business.
Following the latest downgrade, the current consensus, from the three analysts covering Tigo Energy, is for revenues of US$100m in 2027, which would reflect a noticeable 4.6% reduction in Tigo Energy's sales over the past 12 months. After this downgrade, the company is anticipated to report a loss of US$0.11 in 2027, a sharp decline from a profit over the last year. Yet prior to the latest estimates, the analysts had been forecasting revenues of US$119m and losses of US$0.057 per share in 2027. So there's been quite a change-up of views after the recent consensus updates, with the analysts making a serious cut to their revenue forecasts while also expecting losses per share to increase.

The consensus price target fell 15% to US$2.83, with the analysts clearly concerned about the company following the weaker revenue and earnings outlook.
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. We would highlight that sales are expected to reverse, with a forecast 3.7% annualised revenue decline to the end of 2027. That is a notable change from historical growth of 1.1% over the last five years. Compare this with our data, which suggests that other companies in the same industry are, in aggregate, expected to see their revenue grow 13% per year. It's pretty clear that Tigo Energy's revenues are expected to perform substantially worse than the wider industry.
The Bottom Line
The most important thing to note from this downgrade is that the consensus increased its forecast losses next year, suggesting all may not be well at Tigo Energy. Unfortunately analysts also downgraded their revenue estimates, and industry data suggests that Tigo Energy's revenues are expected to grow slower than the wider market. With a serious cut to next year's expectations and a falling price target, we wouldn't be surprised if investors were becoming wary of Tigo Energy.
With that said, the long-term trajectory of the company's earnings is a lot more important than next year. We have estimates - from multiple Tigo Energy analysts - going out to 2028, and you can see them free on our platform here.
