As you might know, Enovix Corporation (NASDAQ:ENVX) just kicked off its latest first-quarter results with some very strong numbers. Results overall were solid, with revenues arriving 10.0% better than analyst forecasts at US$5.1m. Higher revenues also resulted in substantially lower statutory losses which, at US$0.12 per share, were 10.0% smaller than the analysts expected. 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 gathered the latest post-earnings forecasts to see what estimates suggest is in store for next year.

Following the latest results, Enovix’s nine analysts are now forecasting revenues of US$36.9m in 2025. This would be a sizeable 61% improvement in revenue compared to the last 12 months. Losses are supposed to decline, shrinking 17% from last year to US$0.87. Yet prior to the latest earnings, the analysts had been forecasting revenues of US$35.5m and losses of US$0.93 per share in 2025. It looks like there’s been a modest increase in sentiment in the recent updates, with the analysts becoming a bit more optimistic in their predictions for both revenues and losses per share.

The consensus price target fell 30%, to US$18.50, suggesting that the analysts remain pessimistic on the company, despite the improved earnings and revenue outlook. Fixating on a single price target can be unwise though, since the consensus target is effectively the average of analyst price targets. As a result, some investors like to look at the range of estimates to see if there are any diverging opinions on the company’s valuation. There are some variant perceptions on Enovix, with the most bullish analyst valuing it at US$36.00 and the most bearish at US$9.00 per share. As you can see the range of estimates is wide, with the lowest valuation coming in at less than half the most bullish estimate, suggesting there are some strongly diverging views on how analysts think this business will perform. As a result it might not be a great idea to make decisions based on the consensus price target, which is after all just an average of this wide range of estimates.
Of course, another way to look at these forecasts is to place them into context against the industry itself. We can infer from the latest estimates that forecasts expect a continuation of Enovix’shistorical trends, as the 89% annualised revenue growth to the end of 2025 is roughly in line with the 76% 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 8.1% per year. So although Enovix is expected to maintain its revenue growth rate, it’s definitely expected to grow faster than the wider industry.
