Voltronic Power Technology Corp. (TWSE:6409) shareholders will be smiling today after the analysts significantly increased their statutory forecasts for this year. Revenue forecasts for the year have been refreshed and the analysts are more optimistic about the company's sales pipeline.

Earnings per share are expected to grow 13% to NT$45.89. Prior to this latest update, the analysts had been forecasting revenues of NT$22b and earnings per share (EPS) of NT$43.95 in 2024.

Despite these upward revisions, analysts have not made any significant changes to their target price of NT$1,852, suggesting that the higher forecasts are unlikely to have a long-term impact on the stock price.
Of course, another way to look at these forecasts is to place them in the context of the industry itself. From the latest estimates, we can see that Voltronic Power Technology's growth rate is expected to accelerate significantly, with projected annual revenue growth of 48% by the end of 2024, significantly faster than the historical growth rate of 12% per year over the past five years. Compare this to other companies in the same industry, which have forecast revenue growth of 15% per year. While the growth outlook is brighter than recent times, it's clear that analysts are expecting Voltronic Power Technology to grow faster than the industry as a whole.
Conclusion
The most important takeaway from this upward revision is that the analysts have increased their earnings per share forecasts for this year in anticipation of an improving business environment. The good news is that the analysts have also increased their revenue forecasts, and our data suggests that sales are expected to perform better than the overall market. Given that this year's forecasts have been significantly revised upwards, it may be time to take another look at Voltronic Power Technology.
