Let’s check out how things have shaped up for the announcement.
Q1 Expectations
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company’s first-quarter fiscal 2022 revenues is pegged at $1.84 billion, indicating 23% year-over-year growth. The expected upside can be attributed to strength across Aviation, Technical Solutions, and Business & Industry business segments. Improving business conditions, continued demand for the company’s higher-margin virus protection services, efficient labor management, and strategic M&A are also expected to have contributed to top-line growth.
The consensus mark for earnings stands at 79 cents per share, suggesting year-on-year decline of 21.8%. The bottom line is likely to have been weighed down by a decline in operating profit in the Education segment and rising expenses.
