While it is useful to understand the rate of growth each year relative to today’s value, it may be more insightful analyzing the rate at which the company is rising or falling every year, on average. The benefit of this technique is that we can get a better picture of the direction of CSE Global'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've inserted 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 6.2%. This means that, we can expect CSE Global will grow its earnings by 6.2% every year for the next few years.
