An outstanding doubling of earnings is forecasted for EDR, driven by an underlying sales growth of 39.77% over the next few years.

Furthermore, the high growth of over 100% in operating cash flows indicates that a large portion of this earnings increase is high-quality, day-to-day cash generated by the business, rather than one-offs.
