Analysts Are Updating Their First National Corporation (NASDAQ:FXNC) Estimates After Its First-Quarter Results
The analysts might have been a bit too bullish on First National Corporation (NASDAQ:FXNC), given that the company fell short of expectations when it released its first-quarter results last week. Results look to have been somewhat negative - revenue fell 3.4% short of analyst estimates at US$23m, and statutory earnings of US$0.54 per share missed forecasts by 2.7%. Earnings are an important time for investors, as they can track a company's performance, look at what the analysts are forecasting for next year, and see if there's been a change in sentiment towards the company. Readers will be glad to know we've aggregated the latest statutory forecasts to see whether the analysts have changed their mind on First National after the latest results. AI is about to change healthcare. These 20 stocks are working on everything from early diagnostics to drug discovery. The best part - they are all under $10bn in marketcap - there is still time to get in early. After the latest results, the two analysts covering First National are now predicting revenues of US$94.9m in 2026. If met, this would reflect a modest 6.9% improvement in revenue compared to the last 12 months. Statutory per-share earnings are expected to be US$2.36, roughly flat on the last 12 months. Yet prior to the latest earnings, the analysts had been anticipated revenues of US$95.7m and earnings per share (EPS) of US$2.38 in 2026. So it's pretty clear that, although the analysts have updated their estimates, there's been no major change in expectations for the business following the latest results. See our latest analysis for First National There were no changes to revenue or earnings estimates or the price target of US$28.50, suggesting that the company has met expectations in its recent result. Of course, another way to look at these forecasts is to place them into context against the industry itself. It's pretty clear that there is an expectation that First National's revenue growth will slow down substantially, with revenues to the end of 2026 expected to display 9.2% growth on an annualised basis. This is compared to a historical growth rate of 14% over the past five years. Compare this to the 620 other companies in this industry with analyst coverage, which are forecast to grow their revenue at 8.5% per year.
