Wall Street will be looking for positivity from BOOT as it approaches its next earnings report date. On that day, BOOT is projected to report earnings of $0.27 per share, which would represent year-over-year growth of 58.82%. Meanwhile, our latest consensus estimate is calling for revenue of $188.89 million, up 10.61% from the prior-year quarter.
Any recent changes to analyst estimates for BOOT should also be noted by investors. Recent revisions tend to reflect the latest near-term business trends. With this in mind, we can consider positive estimate revisions a sign of optimism about the company's business outlook.
Based on our research, we believe these estimate revisions are directly related to near-team stock moves. To benefit from this, we have developed the Zacks Rank, a proprietary model which takes these estimate changes into account and provides an actionable rating system.
The Zacks Rank system ranges from #1 (Strong Buy) to #5 (Strong Sell). It has a remarkable, outside-audited track record of success, with #1 stocks delivering an average annual return of +25% since 1988.
