Thor (THO) to Report Q4 Earnings: Here's What to Expect
Read MoreHide Full Article
Thor Industries (THO - Free Report) is scheduled to release fourth-quarter fiscal 2023 results on Sep 25, after market close. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the to-be-reported quarter’s earnings per share and revenues is pegged at 96 cents and $2.45 billion, respectively.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Thor’s fiscal fourth-quarter earnings per share has been revised higher by 2 cents in the past seven days. Its bottom-line projection, however, implies a year-over-year deterioration of 81.36%. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues also suggests a year-over-year decline of 35.91%.
The largest manufacturer of recreational vehicles (RVs) in the world, based in Indiana, posted higher-than-expected earnings in the last reported quarter on higher-than-anticipated revenues from its European RVs segment. The company surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in three of the trailing four quarters and missed once, the average being 22.36%. This is depicted in the graph below:
The buyout of Germany-based EHG made Thor the largest RV manufacturer in the world. EHG’s strength in product development, technology and efficiency complements Thor’s North American market position and has bolstered its foothold in the European market. The acquisition of TiffinHomes has further expanded Thor's existing portfolio and is bolstering revenues. Commercial and operational synergies from both buyouts are likely to have buoyed Thor’s fourth-quarter result.
Here’s a look at the estimates for key segmental metrics of the company.
Our estimate for fourth-quarter fiscal 2023 revenues from the North American Motorized RVs segment is pegged at $703 million, indicating a decline from $1,024.8 million recorded in the year-ago period.
Our estimate for revenues from the North American Towable RVs unit is $942.4 million, down from $1,795.9 recorded in the year-ago period.
Our estimate for revenues from the European RV segment is $546 million, indicating a decrease from $806.7 million registered in the year-ago period.
