The company expects sales volumes for the third quarter of 2021 to be $225-$275 million lower than its initial estimate. Increasing disruptions in commodity supplies, persistent reductions in customer production mainly due to shortages in semiconductor chips and logistics and transportation challenges in many regions including the United States, Europe, and China have dealt a blow to the company’s sales volumes.
Raw material inflation for the third quarter is higher by $60-$70 million from the previously-announced figures. Also, Hurricane Ida could inflict additional supply chain woes and the company is continuously monitoring the probable impacts.
PPG Industries currently carries a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell).
Some better-ranked stocks in the basic materials space are Nucor Corporation (NUE - Free Report) , The Chemours Company (CC - Free Report) and Methanex Corporation (MEOH - Free Report) .
Nucor has a projected earnings growth rate of around 537.4% for the current year. The company’s shares have surged 102.8% in a year. It currently flaunts a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy). You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank stocks here.
