The company's earnings beat estimates in each of the trailing four quarters, delivering an average earnings surprise of 95.5%. In the last reported quarter, its earnings of 7 cents per share surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of 7 cents per share by 200%.
Let’s see how things have shaped up for Broadwind this earnings season.
Factors Likely to Influence Results
The Industrial Solutions segment is expected to witness higher revenues on the back of increased gas turbine projects and rising shipments of new and aftermarket gas turbine content. Also, global electricity demand growth has been aiding the segment.
Broadwind’s second-quarter performance is likely to have been aided by an increased order level, driven by strong activity levels from the natural gas turbine market. The company’s focus on expanding its portfolio of industrial fabrications to include new products and increased customer interest from the defense industry are expected to have driven its revenues.
Broadwind has been taking actions to align its cost structure with the current demand environment, which is likely to have aided its margin performance.
However, decreasing demand for wind towers is likely to have impacted the Heavy Fabrications segment’s performance. Reduced shipments for industrial, mining and O&G customers are likely to affect the Gearing segment’s results.
BWEN has considerable exposure to overseas markets. Given its substantial international operations, foreign currency headwinds are likely to have marred its profitability.
The consensus estimate for revenues is pegged at $37 million, indicating a decrease of 26.9% from the year-ago quarter's number. The consensus estimate for earnings is pegged at breakeven, indicating a decline from earnings of 7 cents per share in the year-earlier quarter.
Our proven model does not conclusively predict an earnings beat for BWEN this time around. The combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) increases the odds of an earnings beat, which is not the case here, as elaborated below.
