Hasbro (HAS) Gears Up for Q2 Earnings: What's in Store?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Hasbro, Inc. (HAS - Free Report) is scheduled to report second-quarter 2021 results on Jul 26, before the opening bell. In the last reported quarter, the company’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 56.3%.
Q2 Estimates
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for second-quarter earnings is pegged at 50 cents per share, compared with prior-year reported figure of 2 cents. The consensus mark for second-quarter earnings has been revised downward by 3.8% in the past seven days. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues stands at $1.2 billion, indicating growth of 39.1% from the year-ago quarter.
Factors to Note
Hasbro’s second-quarter performance is likely to have benefited from product development, innovation and solid growth in e-commerce revenues. The company’s focus on retailers to expand online offerings bode well. Its robust Digital Gaming and Entertainment revenues growth might get reflected in the to-be-reported quarter’s top line.
The company has a vast gaming portfolio and it has been refining gaming experiences across a multitude of platforms including face-to-face gaming, off-the-board gaming and digital gaming experiences in mobile. This along with expansion of online offerings is likely to have driven the second-quarter performance. The company’s gaming category, which includes MAGIC: THE GATHERING tabletop, MONOPOLY, DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS and many other Hasbro games such as THE GAME OF LIFE, JENGA, CONNECT 4 and OPERATION, has been performing well.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for second-quarter Eone revenues is pegged at $250 million, indicating growth of 55.3% from the year-ago quarter. The company’s second-quarter results are likely to reflect robust performance of Franchise Brands. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Franchise Brands stands at $531 million, suggesting improvement of 40.8% on a year-over-year basis.
However, reduced customer ordering, supply chain delays and other pandemic related disruptions may have weighed on the second-quarter performance.
Our proven model predicts an earnings beat for Hasbro 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.
