What's in Store for DENTSPLY SIRONA (XRAY) in Q1 Earnings?
Read MoreHide Full Article
DENTSPLY SIRONA Inc. (XRAY - Free Report) is scheduled to release first-quarter 2023 results on May 3, before the opening bell.
In the last reported quarter, the company’s earnings beat estimates by 43.75%. It delivered an average negative earnings surprise of 5.75% in the past four quarters.
Q1 Estimates
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $930.6 million, indicating a 3.6% decline from the year-ago quarter’s number. The same for earnings stands at 33 cents per share, indicating a 36.5% decline from the prior-year period.
Factors to Note
DENTSPLY SIRONA’s Technologies & Equipment segment is likely to have witnessed organic growth in the quarter under review. Higher demand for clear aligners and imaging equipment is expected to have driven the segment’s sales growth, partially offset by weakness in CAD/CAM.
Soft demand in China and the United States might have hurt the Consumable segment’s sales. However, recovering demand for preventive consumables is likely to have provided some support.
Foreign currency movement had a negative impact on total revenues during the fourth quarter. The trend is likely to have continued in the first quarter as well.
On its fourth-quarter earnings call, XRAY’s management stated that it is encouraged by double-digit growth in clear aligners, solid performance in Europe and continued strong demand for Imaging equipment.
However, continued macroeconomic headwinds, including foreign currency impacts, global supply chain challenges, and regional softness in China and the United States may have offset the abovementioned growth. The company is expected to provide updated view on macro headwinds and business performance on its first-quarter earnings call.
Gross margin and adjusted earnings per share are likely to have been adversely impacted by inflationary pressures.
Per our proven model, the combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) increases the chances of an earnings beat. This is not the case here as you will see below.
Earnings ESP: Earnings ESP, which represents the difference between the Most Accurate Estimate and the Zacks Consensus Estimate, is 0.00%. You can uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they’re reported with our Earnings ESP Filter.
