Dynavox Group AB (publ) Just Recorded A 15% EPS Beat: Here's What Analysts Are Forecasting Next
Shareholders of Dynavox Group AB (publ) (STO:DYVOX) will be pleased this week, given that the stock price is up 10% to kr73.40 following its latest quarterly results. It looks like a credible result overall - although revenues of kr670m were in line with what the analysts predicted, Dynavox Group surprised by delivering a statutory profit of kr0.69 per share, a notable 15% above expectations. Following the result, the analysts have updated their earnings model, and it would be good to know whether they think there's been a strong change in the company's prospects, or if it's business as usual. We thought readers would find it interesting to see the analysts latest (statutory) post-earnings forecasts for next year.
Following the latest results, Dynavox Group's five analysts are now forecasting revenues of kr2.78b in 2026. This would be a notable 9.3% improvement in revenue compared to the last 12 months. Per-share earnings are expected to soar 33% to kr2.78. Before this earnings report, the analysts had been forecasting revenues of kr2.79b and earnings per share (EPS) of kr2.81 in 2026. The consensus analysts don't seem to have seen anything in these results that would have changed their view on the business, given there's been no major change to their estimates.

It will come as no surprise then, to learn that the consensus price target is largely unchanged at kr113. That's not the only conclusion we can draw from this data however, as some investors also like to consider the spread in estimates when evaluating analyst price targets. There are some variant perceptions on Dynavox Group, with the most bullish analyst valuing it at kr141 and the most bearish at kr90.00 per share. As you can see, analysts are not all in agreement on the stock's future, but the range of estimates is still reasonably narrow, which could suggest that the outcome is not totally unpredictable.
Taking a look at the bigger picture now, one of the ways we can understand these forecasts is to see how they compare to both past performance and industry growth estimates. We can infer from the latest estimates that forecasts expect a continuation of Dynavox Group'shistorical trends, as the 20% annualised revenue growth to the end of 2026 is roughly in line with the 20% annual growth over the past three years. By contrast, our data suggests that other companies (with analyst coverage) in a similar industry are forecast to see their revenues grow 9.0% per year. So although Dynavox Group is expected to maintain its revenue growth rate, it's definitely expected to grow faster than the wider industry.
The Bottom Line
The most obvious conclusion is that there's been no major change in the business' prospects in recent times, with the analysts holding their earnings forecasts steady, in line with previous estimates. Fortunately, they also reconfirmed their revenue numbers, suggesting that it's tracking in line with expectations. Additionally, our data suggests that revenue is expected to grow faster than the wider industry. There was no real change to the consensus price target, suggesting that the intrinsic value of the business has not undergone any major changes with the latest estimates.
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. We have forecasts for Dynavox Group going out to 2028, and you can see them free on our platform here.
