This Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) is also trading with great valuations, even as it pressures the 52-week high.
Company Description
TriMas makes engineered and applied products for a variety of industries. The company is broken down into 5 segments; Packaging, Energy, Aerospace & Defense, Engineered Components and Cequent (recreational products).
Another Surprise
Since being featured as a Zacks Rank Buy in July, TriMas has reported 2 more earnings surprises, bringing the streak to 6. The latest quarterly report came on Oct 28.
Earnings per share came in at 37 cents, beating the estimates by 7 cents. Sales were up 22% to nearly $248 million during the quarter, credited to economic improvements as well as growth initiatives.
Optimistic Outlook
Given the strong quarterly performance, management raised its full-year outlook. TriMas expects to more than double EPS, from $0.43 to between $1.05 and $1.10.
Analysts agree and have pushed the Zacks Consensus Estimate to the high end of that range. Forecasts are calling for $1.10 on average, up 6 cents on the earnings news. Next year's estimates are up 8 cents, to $1.34.
If TriMas hits these projections the annual growth rates will be 156% and 22%, respectively.
A Good Value as Well
Shares of TRS are trading at 12 times the 2011 consensus estimate and with a PEG ratio of only 0.8. TriMas has the best price-to-sales ratio in its peer group, at 0.61 times.
Speaking of peers, the company stacks up very well next to its competitors. The company has an ROE of over 47%, compared to the 7.2% the industry averages.
The Chart
There was some profit taking on the earnings news, but shares quickly bounced back. If they can push past the 52-week high, the bullish trend should continue.
