What's in Store for Radiant Logistics (RLGT) in Q1 Earnings?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Radiant Logistics (RLGT - Free Report) is scheduled to release first-quarter fiscal 2020 (ended Sep 30, 2019) results on Nov 12, after market close.
The company has an impressive earnings history, having outperformed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in each of the preceding four quarters, the average being 29.5%.
Let’s see whether the company is able to repeat its success story in the upcoming quarterly results.
Factors Likely at Play
Akin to the last few quarters, the company’s U.S. segment (contributing to majority of the top line) is expected to have performed impressively in the to-be-reported quarter. Also, within the U.S. segment, transportation and value-added services are anticipated to have realized solid net revenues.
Additionally, international revenues from Canada are expected to have been strong in the quarter to be reported. Further, encouraging segmental results are expected to get reflected in Radiant Logistics’ cash flows. Reduced cost of transportation and other services might as well get reflected in the company’s bottom line.
However, the soft freight environment is likely to hurt the results for the fiscal first quarter. Rising personnel expenses might have further dampened earnings.
Our proven model does not conclusively predict a beat for Radiant Logistics this earnings season. The odds of a beat increase with a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold). However, that is not the case here as highlighted below.
Earnings ESP: Radiant Logistics has an Earnings ESP of 0.00% as both the Most Accurate Estimate and the Zacks Consensus Estimate are pegged at 12 cents. You can uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they’re reported with our Earnings ESP Filter.
In the last reported quarter, the company’s earnings of 15 cents per share beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 12 cents. The bottom line also improved year over year, aided by lower costs on transportation and other services. Higher revenues at the U.S. and Canada segments also drove this performance. However, the company’s revenues of $204.65 million missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 7.18%. The top line also declined year over year.
