Even though it’s informative knowing the rate of growth year by year relative to today’s figure, it may be more valuable determining the rate at which the earnings are moving every year, on average. The advantage of this method is that we can get a bigger picture of the direction of OrganiGram Holdings’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 analyst consensus of forecasted earnings. The slope of this line is the rate of earnings growth, which in this case is 43%. This means that, we can expect OrganiGram Holdings will grow its earnings by 43% every year for the next couple of years.
