While it is informative knowing the growth rate year by year relative to today’s level, it may be more valuable determining the rate at which the company is growing on average every year. The advantage of this approach is that it ignores near term flucuations and accounts for the overarching direction of Transgene’s earnings trajectory over time, be more volatile. To calculate this rate, I’ve appended a line of best fit through the forecasted earnings by market analysts. The slope of this line is the rate of earnings growth, which in this case is -1.33%.
