Analysts Are Updating Their EPACK Durable Limited (NSE:EPACK) Estimates After Its First-Quarter Results
Shareholders might have noticed that EPACK Durable Limited (NSE:EPACK) filed its first-quarter result this time last week. The early response was not positive, with shares down 3.7% to ₹219 in the past week. It was a workmanlike result, with revenues of ₹8.9b coming in 4.8% ahead of expectations, and statutory earnings per share of ₹0.34, in line with analyst appraisals. This is an important time for investors, as they can track a company's performance in its report, look at what experts are forecasting for next year, and see if there has been any change to expectations for the business. So we collected the latest post-earnings statutory consensus estimates to see what could be in store for next year.
Taking into account the latest results, the current consensus from EPACK Durable's four analysts is for revenues of ₹25.0b in 2027. This would reflect a solid 18% increase on its revenue over the past 12 months. EPACK Durable is also expected to turn profitable, with statutory earnings of ₹4.88 per share. Yet prior to the latest earnings, the analysts had been anticipated revenues of ₹24.8b and earnings per share (EPS) of ₹4.90 in 2027. 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.

The analysts reconfirmed their price target of ₹255, showing that the business is executing well and in line with expectations. 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. There are some variant perceptions on EPACK Durable, with the most bullish analyst valuing it at ₹285 and the most bearish at ₹220 per share. Even so, with a relatively close grouping of estimates, it looks like the analysts are quite confident in their valuations, suggesting EPACK Durable is an easy business to forecast or the the analysts are all using similar assumptions.
Of course, another way to look at these forecasts is to place them into context against the industry itself. It's clear from the latest estimates that EPACK Durable's rate of growth is expected to accelerate meaningfully, with the forecast 25% annualised revenue growth to the end of 2027 noticeably faster than its historical growth of 2.6% over the past year. Compare this with other companies in the same industry, which are forecast to grow their revenue 15% annually. It seems obvious that, while the growth outlook is brighter than the recent past, the analysts also expect EPACK Durable 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. Happily, there were no major changes to revenue forecasts, with the business still expected to grow faster than the wider industry. The consensus price target held steady at ₹255, with the latest estimates not enough to have an impact on their price targets.
