Vista Bull's Confidence in Earnings Outlook Grows

Dow Jones
Sep 07

2246 GMT - Forsyth Barr says confidence in its earnings estimates for cinema software company Vista has risen. In the U.S., August box office revenue was its strongest on record for that month. That means year-to-date box office revenue is currently ahead of the growth embedded within Vista FY26 revenue guidance, analyst James Lindsay says. "Vista is also benefiting from recent contract wins and an FX backdrop that remains more favorable than assumed in its original FY26 guidance," Forsyth Barr adds. Still, it keeps forecasts unchanged near the midpoint of Vista's guidance. That decision reflects uncertainty around the full-year box office outcome and a release slate heavily weighted to December over the remaining four months of 2026. Forsyth Barr retains an outperform call and NZ$3.43/share price target on Vista, which is down 3.3% at NZ$2.64 today.
