LONDON (ShareCast) - (Sharecast News) - Analysts at ShoreCap upgraded their recommendation for shares of Frontier Developments from 'hold' to 'buy', telling clients that they were anticipating record sales over the 2023 financial year and a step-change in profitability.
Their new recommendation, they pointed out, also followed a downdraft that had seen the shares drop from about 1,400.0p in November to "just" 960.0p.
To them, that marked a "notable" discount to their favir value estimate of 1,350.0p - which was unchanged - and to its historical metrics " despite a larger profile of titles and an arguably more sophisticated model".
They were also anticipating improving margins and cash generation across their forecasted period which stretched out to FY2025.
