Yintech Investment Holdings Limited’s (NASDAQ:YIN) most recent earnings announcement in December 2017 revealed that the business endured a significant headwind with earnings declining by -48.35%. Today I want to provide a brief commentary on how market analysts view Yintech Investment Holdings’s earnings growth trajectory over the next couple of years and whether the future looks brighter. Note that I will be looking at net income excluding extraordinary items to get a better understanding of the underlying drivers of earnings. Check out our latest analysis for Yintech Investment Holdings

Market analysts’ consensus outlook for next year seems pessimistic, with earnings reducing by a double-digit -17.41%.

Even though it is informative knowing the growth each year relative to today’s figure, it may be more valuable determining the rate at which the earnings are rising or falling every year, on average. The advantage of this approach is that we can get a better picture of the direction of Yintech Investment Holdings’s earnings trajectory over the long run, irrespective of near term fluctuations, which may be more relevant for long term investors. To calculate this rate, I put a line of best fit through analyst consensus of forecasted earnings. The slope of this line is the rate of earnings growth, which in this case is 25.72%. This means that, we can expect Yintech Investment Holdings will grow its earnings by 25.72% every year for the next couple of years.
