Can we expect Illumina to keep growing?
The longer term view from the 16 analysts covering ILMN is one of positive sentiment. Broker analysts tend to forecast up to three years ahead due to a lack of clarity around the business trajectory beyond this. To reduce the year-on-year volatility of analyst earnings forecast, I’ve inserted a line of best fit through the expected earnings figures to determine the annual growth rate from the slope of the line.
NASDAQGS:ILMN Future Profit February 1st 19
From the current net income level of US$826m and the final forecast of US$1.2b by 2022, the annual rate of growth for ILMN’s earnings is 13%. This leads to an EPS of $8.03 in the final year of projections relative to the current EPS of $5.62. Margins are currently sitting at 25%, approximately the same as previous years. With analysts forecasting revenue growth of 0.45969 and ILMN’s net income growth expected to roughly track that, this company may add value for shareholders over time.
