Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (BR - Free Report) is set to report its fourth-quarter fiscal 2024 results on Aug 6, before the bell.

The company has an impressive earnings surprise history. Its earnings surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in three of the trailing four quarters and matched once, delivering an average surprise of 6%.

Q4 Expectations

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues in the to-be-reported quarter is pegged at $1.96 billion, which indicates a 6.8% increase from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure. Expected growth is likely to have been driven by internal growth and new businesses, higher equity proxy activity and an increase in postage rate.

Our estimate for net revenues at Investor Communication Solutions is pegged at $1.52 billion, which suggests a year-over-year increase of 5.8%. Our estimate for net revenues in the Global Technology and Operations segment is pegged at $437.5 million, which indicates a 9.2% year-over-year increase.

The consensus mark for earnings in the to-be-reported quarter is pegged at $3.48 per share, which suggests a year-over-year increase of 8.4%. We expect improved operating performance in the quarter, benefiting the bottom line.
