Annual Revenue Forecast

A pattern of increasing sales in conjunction with a rising EPS may influence a buy recommendation, while flat or falling sales and faltering earnings may explain a sell recommendation. A rising EPS with flat or falling sales may result from increased cost efficiency and margins, rather than market expansion. This chart shows the revenue forecast trend of all analysts and the highest and lowest projections for the current and next fiscal year.
