Traeger, Inc. Just Beat Earnings Expectations: Here's What Analysts Think Will Happen Next

Traeger, Inc. (NYSE:COOK) shareholders are probably feeling a little disappointed, since its shares fell 2.7% to US$41.72 in the week after its latest quarterly results.

The consensus price target is just an average of individual analyst targets, so - it could be handy to see how wide the range of underlying estimates is. There are some variant perceptions on Traeger, with the most bullish analyst valuing it at US$75.00 and the most bearish at US$37.00 per share. This is a fairly broad spread of estimates, suggesting that analysts are forecasting a wide range of possible outcomes for the business. 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. Over the past five years, revenues have declined around 6.6% annually. Worse, forecasts are essentially predicting the decline to accelerate, with the estimate for an annualised 9.9% decline in revenue until the end of 2026. Compare this against analyst estimates for companies in the broader industry, which suggest that revenues (in aggregate) are expected to grow 4.9% annually. So it's pretty clear that, while it does have declining revenues, the analysts also expect Traeger to suffer worse than the wider industry. The Bottom Line The most important thing to take away is that the analysts reconfirmed their loss per share estimates for next year. On the plus side, there were no major changes to revenue estimates; although forecasts imply they will perform worse than the wider industry. There was also a nice increase in the price target, with the analysts clearly feeling that the intrinsic value of the business is improving. 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.
