Following the latest results, enCore Energy's three analysts are now forecasting revenues of US$103.2m in 2025. This would be a substantial 130% improvement in revenue compared to the last 12 months. Earnings are expected to improve, with enCore Energy forecast to report a statutory profit of US$0.13 per share. Yet prior to the latest earnings, the analysts had been anticipated revenues of US$104.9m and earnings per share (EPS) of US$0.12 in 2025. The analysts seems to have become more bullish on the business, judging by their new earnings per share estimates.

The consensus price target was unchanged at CA$8.00, implying that the improved earnings outlook is not expected to have a long term impact on value creation for shareholders. It could also be instructive to look at the range of analyst estimates, to evaluate how different the outlier opinions are from the mean. The most optimistic enCore Energy analyst has a price target of CA$10.00 per share, while the most pessimistic values it at CA$7.00. These price targets show that analysts do have some differing views on the business, but the estimates do not vary enough to suggest to us that some are betting on wild success or utter failure.

One way to get more context on these forecasts is to look at how they compare to both past performance, and how other companies in the same industry are performing. The period to the end of 2025 brings more of the same, according to the analysts, with revenue forecast to display 94% growth on an annualised basis. That is in line with its 100% annual growth over the past five years. Compare this with the broader industry, which analyst estimates (in aggregate) suggest will see revenues grow 1.7% annually. So although enCore Energy is expected to maintain its revenue growth rate, it's definitely expected to grow faster than the wider industry.

The Bottom Line

The biggest takeaway for us is the consensus earnings per share upgrade, which suggests a clear improvement in sentiment around enCore Energy's earnings potential next year. Happily, there were no major changes to revenue forecasts, with the business still expected to grow faster than the wider industry. The consensus price target held steady at CA$8.00, with the latest estimates not enough to have an impact on their price targets.

With that said, the long-term trajectory of the company's earnings is a lot more important than next year. We have forecasts for enCore Energy going out to 2026, and you can see them free on our platform here.
