These estimates are interesting, but it can be useful to paint some more broad strokes when seeing how forecasts compare, both to the Genfit's past performance and to peers in the same industry. These estimates imply that sales are expected to slow, with a forecast annualised revenue decline of 35% by the end of 2025. This indicates a significant reduction from annual growth of 15% over the last five years. Compare this with our data, which suggests that other companies in the same industry are, in aggregate, expected to see their revenue grow 22% per year.
