In the last reported quarter, the company’s earnings and revenues surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 75.2% and 4.8%, respectively. On a year-over-year basis, earnings and revenues increased 114.7% and 15%, respectively. UFP Industries' earnings topped the consensus mark in all the last four quarters, the average being 56.8%.
Trend in Estimate Revision
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the to-be-reported quarter’s earnings has moved up to $2.01 per share in the past seven days. The estimated figure indicates a 20.4% growth from the year-ago quarter’s earnings of $1.67 per share. The consensus mark for revenues is pegged at $2.18 billion, suggesting 19.3% year-over-year growth.
UFP Industries’ top and the bottom line are expected to have benefited from the existing product portfolio, initiatives to improve production efficiency and solid growth opportunities across the markets served. Efforts to introduce new products are likely to have been a boon for the company. A solid U.S. residential market and robust demand for repair and remodeling (R&R) activities are expected to have benefited its first-quarter performance.
Acquisitions have been the primary contributor to unit sales growth. The company’s Industrial and Retail segments are expected to have gained from the integration of recent acquisitions.
Yet, intense inflationary pressure and supply chain issues might have been headwinds.
