Clarus (CLAR) to Report Q4 Earnings: What's in the Cards?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Clarus Corporation (CLAR - Free Report) is likely to witness improvement in the bottom line when it reports fourth-quarter 2019 results on Mar 9, 2020. In the last reported quarter, the company posted a negative earnings surprise of 22.7%.
Q4 Expectations
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fourth-quarter earnings is pegged at 18 cents. In the year-ago quarter, the company had reported earnings of 17 cents per share. However, in the past 30 days, the company’s earnings estimates have moved south by a couple of cents.
For quarterly revenues, the consensus mark is pegged at nearly $59.8 million. The projected figure suggests a 4.3% rise from the prior-year quarter’s levels.
Let’s discuss the factors that are likely to get reflected in Clarus’ fourth-quarter 2019 performance.
Solid Sales in domestic and international segments are likely to have had a positive impact on the company’s fourth-quarter performance. Further, the consensus mark for revenues in the domestic and international segments is at $33.9 million and $25.7 million, that indicates growth of 3.4% and 5.3%, respectively, from the year-ago quarter’s figures. Moreover, product innovation and forging into new, long-term revenue markets are likely to have benefited the top line in the fourth quarter. However, softness in bullet and ammunition market is a concern.
