Even though it is useful to be aware of the growth rate year by year relative to today’s value, it may be more valuable to estimate the rate at which the business is growing every year, on average. The benefit of this approach is that we can get a better picture of the direction of Bukit Sembawang Estates’s earnings trajectory over the long run, irrespective of near term fluctuations, which may be more relevant for long term investors. To compute this rate, I’ve appended 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 27.46%.
