Read MoreHide Full Article
S&P Global Inc. (SPGI - Free Report) is scheduled to release second-quarter 2021 results on Jul 29, before market open.
Q2 Expectations
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for S&P Global’s second-quarter 2021 revenues stands at $2.00 billion, indicating growth of 2.7% from the year-ago period’s reported figure.
Segment wise, Ratings revenues are likely to have been driven by strength across both non-transaction and transaction revenues. Non-transaction revenues are likely to have benefited from strength in CRISIL, surveillance, new-entity ratings and Ratings Evaluation Services. Market Intelligence revenues are expected to have gained from growth in Data Management Solutions, Credit Risk Services and Desktop. Platts revenues are likely to have benefited from growth in the core subscription business. Indices revenues are likely to have been aided by gains in asset-linked fees.
Expenses related to the pending merger with IHS Markit are likely to have weighed on S&P Global’s earnings, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for which is pegged at $3.28 per share, indicating a decline of 3.5% from the year-ago period’s reported figure.
What Our Model Says
