The company has an impressive earnings surprise history. It trumped the Zacks Consensus Estimate in three of the preceding four quarters, while matching estimates in one. The average beat was 4.6%.
Let’s see how things have shaped up for Donaldson’s fiscal fourth quarter.
Weakness in the Life Sciences segment due to continued disk drive market softness is likely to have weighed on Donaldson’s fiscal fourth-quarter performance. The adversity is likely to have been partly offset by the June 2023 acquisition of Univercells Technologies.
The escalating cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses, might have dented the company’s bottom line. Foreign currency headwinds are likely to have dented DCI’s top line. Nevertheless, the acquisitions of Isolere Bio and Purilogics are expected to have contributed to the top line.
The Mobile Solutions segment is expected to have benefited from high levels of global equipment production in Off-Road and On-Road and pricing actions. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Mobile Solutions revenues indicates a 1.8% increase from the sequential quarter’s reported figure.
Strength in the commercial aerospace industry and industrial gases’ part sales are expected to have aided the Industrial Solutions segment. The consensus mark for segmental revenues suggests an approximate 2% increase from the sequential quarter’s reported figure.
