Read MoreHide Full Article
The Cooper Companies, Inc.’s (COO - Free Report) second-quarter fiscal 2019 results are scheduled to release on May 30, after market close.
The company expects to gain from segmental growth in the quarter to be reported.
Which Way Are Estimates Trending?
For the quarter to be reported, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $653.37 million, suggesting year-over-year growth of 3.5%. The same for earnings is pegged at $2.76, indicating a year-over-year decline of 3.5%.
Cooper Companies reports revenues through two major segments — CooperVision (CVI) and CooperSurgical (CSI).
CVI’s Toric and Multifocal lenses, which make Cooper Companies a stalwart in the soft contact lenses market, are expected to drive second-quarter results. Additionally, CSI’s Surgical product portfolio is also expected to fuel growth.
Management at Cooper Companies expects to see higher contact lenses demand owing to the global transition to daily contact lenses by customers. Moreover, the company has made advancements in its customized product offerings which are expected to ramp up second-quarter sales.
It is encouraging to note that for fiscal 2019, Cooper Companies expects CVI sales within $1,968-$$1,995 million, higher than $1,940-$1,980 million anticipated earlier.
Coming to CSI, management is optimistic about the acquisitions of Blanchard and Incisive Surgical earlier this year. This is expected to boost the company’s specialty lens business in the quarter to be reported.
It is encouraging to note that for fiscal 2019, Cooper Companies expects CSI sales within $663-$681 million, up from the previous guidance of $660-$680 million.
