Let’s see how things have shaped up for IR this earnings season.
Factors to Note Ahead of IR’s Results
IR’s Industrial Technologies & Services segment’s first-quarter performance is expected to have benefited from higher orders across its product portfolio of industrial vacuums and blowers, and compressors. We anticipate the segment’s revenues to increase 1.7% year over year to $1.4 billion.
The Precision and Science Technologies segment is anticipated to have performed well, backed by strong momentum in the life sciences business, driven by growth in short-cycle orders and multi-year contract wins for the production of legacy space suits. We expect the segment’s revenues to increase 17.2% year over year to $347.7 million.
Ingersoll Rand has been making continued investments to support growth in demand generation and the Industrial Internet of Things, which are expected to have driven its performance.
Synergistic gains from the acquisitions made by the company are expected to have boosted revenues. The acquisitions of Air Power Systems Co., LLC (“APSCO”), Blutek s.r.l. (Blutek) and UT Pumps & Systems Private Limited (UT Pumps) in October 2024 strengthened its market position and technology portfolio across energy-efficient bulk handling, high-specification projects and pump technologies. In June 2024, Ingersoll Rand acquired ILC Dover, integrating it into its Precision & Science Technologies segment. This acquisition enhanced the company’s capabilities, with ILC Dover’s single-use solutions for biopharma and pharma production complementing its expertise in liquid handling technologies and positive displacement pumps.
In the same month, IR acquired Complete Air and Power Solutions (“CAPS”), Del PD Pumps & Gear Pvt Ltd. (Del Pumps) and Fruvac Ltd. (Fruitland Manufacturing). The acquisition of Del Pumps complemented IR’s expertise in mission-critical, pumping solutions across the life science, food and beverage and medical industries. The buyout augmented the precision technologies business within the Precision and Science Technologies segment.
The CAPS buyout expanded IR’s product portfolio for its clients while the acquisition of Fruitland augmented its capabilities in the mobile vacuum market. Ingersoll Rand integrated both companies into its Industrial Technologies and Services segment.
In the first quarter, we expect the company’s total revenues to be $1.74 billion, indicating an increase of 4.5% year over year.
However, increasing costs of sales are likely to have weighed on IR’s performance. Rising selling and administrative expenses are likely to have dented the company’s margins and profitability.
Given the company’s substantial international presence, foreign-currency headwinds are expected to have affected its top line.
Ingersol Rand’s adjusted earnings are expected to be 74 cents per share, indicating a 5% decrease from the year-ago quarter’s number.
Our proven model does not conclusively predict an earnings beat for IR 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.
