Isle of Capri Casinos (ISLE) Q1 Earnings: What's in Store?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Isle of Capri Casinos, Inc. is slated to release its first-quarter fiscal 2017 results on Aug 30, before the opening bell.
Last quarter, Isle of Capri Casinos posted a 5.08% positive earnings surprise. Moreover, the company’s earnings outpaced the Zacks Consensus Estimate in three of the last four quarters, with an average beat of 17.66%.
Let’s see how things are shaping up for this announcement.
Isle of Capri Casinos’ persistent efforts to optimize its marketing and operating model are likely to drive results in the quarter to be reported. Moreover, improved quality of the company’s asset portfolio along with the rollout of new initiatives should boost this quarter’s performance.
However, challenging weather conditions and increased promotional activity from competitors might hamper the company’s top-line growth in the quarter.
Earnings Whispers
Our proven model does not conclusively show that Isle of Capri Casinos is likely to beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate this quarter. This is because a stock needs to have both a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) for this to happen. Unfortunately, that is not the case here as elaborated below.
Zacks ESP: Isle of Capri Casinos has an Earnings ESP of 0.00%. This is because both the Most Accurate estimate and the Zacks Consensus Estimate are pegged at 29 cents.
Zacks Rank: Isle of Capri Casinos has a Zacks Rank #3 which increases the predictive power of ESP. However, a 0.00% ESP makes surprise prediction difficult.
On the other hand, we caution against stocks with a Zacks Rank #4 or 5 (Sell-rated stocks) going into the earnings announcement, especially when the company is seeing negative estimate revisions.
Stocks to Consider
Here are some companies you may want to consider as our model shows these have the right combination of elements to post an earnings beat this quarter:
Regal Entertainment Group (RGC - Free Report) has an Earnings ESP of +15.00 % and a Zacks Rank #3.
World Wrestling Entertainment Inc. has an Earnings ESP of +13.33% and a Zacks Rank #3.
Entercom Communications Corp. has an Earnings ESP of +8.00% and a Zacks Rank #3.
