Read MoreHide Full Article
FactSet Research Systems Inc. (FDS - Free Report) will report second-quarter fiscal 2022 results on Mar 24, before the bell.
The company has an impressive earnings surprise history. It surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in two of the last four quarters and missed the same in the other two, delivering an average earnings beat of 3.3%.
Expectations This Time Around
The consensus estimate for FactSet’s revenues in the to-be-reported quarter is pegged at $427 million, indicating 9% growth from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure. The top line is expected to have been driven by higher sales of analytics, content and technology solutions.
The bottom line is expected to have been positively impacted by higher revenues, the consensus mark for which stands at $2.96 per share, suggesting 8.8% year-over-year growth.

The combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) increases the odds of an earnings beat. But that’s not the case here. You can uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they’re reported with our Earnings ESP Filter.
