Read MoreHide Full Article
SiteOne Landscape (SITE - Free Report) shares rallied 5.2% in the last trading session to close at $172.82. This move can be attributable to notable volume with a higher number of shares being traded than in a typical session. This compares to the stock's 4.7% loss over the past four weeks.
Shares of SiteOne Landscape gained as an analyst at UBS upgraded the rating from Sell to Neutral. The analyst, however, reduced the price target to $165 from $170. Per the analyst, following correction over the past four months, the stock price now reflects the company's 10% sales growth.
This company is expected to post quarterly earnings of $0.16 per share in its upcoming report, which represents no change from the year-ago quarter. Revenues are expected to be $736.4 million, up 13.3% from the year-ago quarter.
While earnings and revenue growth expectations are important in evaluating the potential strength in a stock, empirical research shows a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and near-term stock price movements.
For SiteOne Landscape, the consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days. And a stock's price usually doesn't keep moving higher in the absence of any trend in earnings estimate revisions. So, make sure to keep an eye on SITE going forward to see if this recent jump can turn into more strength down the road.
SiteOne Landscape is part of the Zacks Industrial Services industry. Hudson Technologies (HDSN - Free Report) , another stock in the same industry, closed the last trading session 3.2% higher at $6.14. HDSN has returned 55.8% in the past month.
