- Negative Sentiment: Brookline Capital Markets sharply reduced multi‑year EPS forecasts for Forte (FY2026–FY2030), cutting earlier projections across several years — the revisions signal the analyst expects larger near‑term losses than previously modeled and remove upside from earnings/cash‑flow expectations. That weaker analyst outlook amplifies negative sentiment from the equity offering. (See FBRX analyst notes on MarketBeat.) MarketBeat: FBRX Analyst Coverage
