Last week, you might have seen that CTS Eventim AG & Co. KGaA (ETR:EVD) released its quarterly result to the market. The early response was not positive, with shares down 4.7% to €107 in the past week. Statutory earnings per share disappointed, coming in -32% short of expectations, at €0.48. Fortunately revenue performance was a lot stronger at €499m arriving 12% ahead of predictions. Earnings are an important time for investors, as they can track a company's performance, look at what the analysts are forecasting for next year, and see if there's been a change in sentiment towards the company. So we collected the latest post-earnings statutory consensus estimates to see what could be in store for next year.

The consensus price target held steady at €113, with the analysts seemingly voting that their lower forecast earnings are not expected to lead to a lower stock price in the foreseeable future. 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 CTS Eventim KGaA analyst has a price target of €130 per share, while the most pessimistic values it at €99.00. Still, with such a tight range of estimates, it suggeststhe analysts have a pretty good idea of what they think the company is worth.
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 CTS Eventim KGaA's revenue growth is expected to slow, with the forecast 8.4% annualised growth rate until the end of 2025 being well below the historical 37% 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 5.7% annually. Even after the forecast slowdown in growth, it seems obvious that CTS Eventim KGaA is also expected to grow faster than the wider industry.
