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. It's pretty clear that there is an expectation that PSC Insurance Group's revenue growth will slow down substantially, with revenues next year expected to grow 15%, compared to a historical growth rate of 22% over the past five years. By contrast, our data suggests that other companies (with analyst coverage) in a similar industry are forecast to see their revenue shrink 0.8% per year. So it's clear that despite the slowdown in growth, PSC Insurance Group is still expected to grow meaningfully faster than the wider industry.

The Bottom Line

The most important thing to take away from this upgrade is that analysts lifted their revenue estimates for this year. Analysts also expect revenues to perform better than the wider market. Seeing the dramatic upgrade to this year's forecasts, it might be time to take another look at PSC Insurance Group.
