Our most recent consensus estimate is calling for quarterly revenue of $399.70 million, up 68.95% from the year-ago period.
SEDG's full-year Zacks Consensus Estimates are calling for earnings of $3.92 per share and revenue of $1.39 billion. These results would represent year-over-year changes of +23.66% and +48.72%, respectively.
