In the last year, a 90% increase was seen in the share price of Rolls-Royce. A Quick look at the 5-year performance shows an impressive return of 840%.
Can this extremely bullish trend in the Rolls-Royce stock continue for the next 2 years? We need to look at the data before answering that question.
Ever since the crash in 2020, the Rolls-Royce shares have been going up like crazy. The investors who bought the Rolls-Royce stock during that period also enjoyed amazing returns.
In 2025, experts are forecasting a decline in the Rolls-Royce EPS. If we look back, the company enjoyed strong EPS, which means things are changing now. Also, the forward P/E of the Rolls-Royce is at 34 which is still a little high for many investors.
According to analysts at City, the P/E ratio of Rolls-Royce will drop to 25 by the year 2027. Recently, the firm's CEO also said that their transformation is going smoothly and they are on track to improve cash potential and earnings.
So, if the earnings grow and the P/E also becomes attractive, the Rolls-Royce shares will jump to 1059p. Based on the recent prices, that's a jump of almost 33%. So, if someone invested $10,000 in the Rolls-Royce, it would be worth $13,300.
The bottom line is that the Rolls-Royce is all set to move higher in the stock market. Also, the P/E ratio, earnings, cash, & other numbers are expected to improve in 2026 and 2027.
However, we don't expect the Rolls-Royce stock to give crazy returns like it did in the last few years. But, even a 33% return during the next 2 years is pretty solid in the context of the stock market.
But if you are expecting crazy returns like 70%, 100%, or more in 2 years, then Rolls-Royce stock may not be the ideal choice.
At times like these, we must also understand that the USA is a big market for the cars. And the USA is putting tariffs on the imported cars which could pose challenges for the Rolls-Royce.
