China Resources Building Materials Technology Holdings Limited Earnings Missed Analyst Estimates: Here’s What Analysts Are Forecasting Now

Last week saw the newest half-year earnings release from China Resources Building Materials Technology Holdings Limited (HKG:1313), an important milestone in the company’s journey to build a stronger business. It was a pretty negative result overall, with revenues of CN¥8.7b missing analyst predictions by 7.5%. Worse, the business reported a statutory loss of CN¥0.064 per share, a substantial decline on analyst expectations of a profit. 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.

It might be a surprise to learn that the consensus price target fell 6.7% to HK$1.71, with the analysts clearly linking lower forecast earnings to the performance of the stock price. 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. The most optimistic China Resources Building Materials Technology Holdings analyst has a price target of HK$2.50 per share, while the most pessimistic values it at HK$1.10. This is a fairly broad spread of estimates, suggesting that analysts are forecasting a wide range of possible outcomes for the business.

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. One thing stands out from these estimates, which is that China Resources Building Materials Technology Holdings is forecast to grow faster in the future than it has in the past, with revenues expected to display 14% annualised growth until the end of 2026. If achieved, this would be a much better result than the 13% annual decline over the past five years. Compare this against analyst estimates for the broader industry, which suggest that (in aggregate) industry revenues are expected to grow 6.3% annually. Not only are China Resources Building Materials Technology Holdings’ revenues expected to improve, it seems that the analysts are also expecting it to grow faster than the wider industry.

The Bottom Line

The most important thing to take away is that the analysts downgraded their earnings per share estimates, showing that there has been a clear decline in sentiment following these results. Happily, there were no major changes to revenue forecasts, with the business still expected to grow faster than the wider industry. Furthermore, the analysts also cut their price targets, suggesting that the latest news has led to greater pessimism about the intrinsic value of the business.

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 China Resources Building Materials Technology Holdings going out to 2028, and you can see them free on our platform here.
