SolarEdge Technologies, Inc. (SEDG - Free Report) is slated to report fourth-quarter and full-year 2022 results on Feb 13, after the closing bell.
In the last reported quarter, the company delivered a negative earnings surprise of 36.36%. SEDG has a trailing four-quarter negative earnings surprise of 22.37%, on average.
Factors to Note
Solid shipment of the company’s DC-optimized inverters, along with residential batteries, is likely to have benefited SolarEdge’s overall Q4 top line.
Strong sales growth in both Europe and the United States are expected to have aided the company’s sales growth in the fourth quarter, buoyed by its strong product portfolio and presence in these regions. In addition, the upcoming results are likely to reflect growing momentum of SolarEdge’s products in Vietnam, China, Taiwan, South Africa as well as Australia.
On the product front, growing demand for its single-phase battery, particularly in Australia, South Africa and the United Kingdom, is expected to have benefited the fourth-quarter top line. Also, the launch of its Sense Connect technology at the onset of Q4 might have added impetus to its overall result.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fourth-quarter revenues is pegged at $875.4 million, suggesting growth of 58.6% from the year-ago quarter’s reported number.
Solid revenue growth is likely to have aided the margin performance in the soon-to-be-reported quarter. This may have benefited the company’s bottom line in the fourth quarter of 2022.
However, foreign currency movements are likely to have some negative impact on the overall Q4 earnings performance.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fourth-quarter earnings is pegged at $1.59 per share, indicating an improvement of 44.6% from the prior-year quarter’s reported figure.
