Earnings History
The Zacks Rank cares more about earnings estimate revisions that the earnings history, but one look at the earnings history for B, and you have to smile. I see the company posting 4 straight beats of the Zacks Consensus Estimate with an average positive earnings surprise of 22%.
Estimate Revisions
Over the last week or so, estimates have fallen for B. This quarter slipped to 34 cents from 37 cents and next quarter dropped a penny.
Stretch that time horizon out to 60 days and the drops increase to 4 cents and 3 cents respectively.
The Zacks Rank cares more about the full year numbers and only this year has fallen. I see that number moving from $1.82 to $1.75 over the last 60 days and that is what pushed this stock to become a Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell)
Chart
Barnes Group, Inc. Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise
Each was hand-picked by a Zacks expert as the #1 favorite stock to gain +100% or more in 2020. Each comes from a different sector and has unique qualities and catalysts that could fuel exceptional growth.
Most of the stocks in this report are flying under Wall Street radar, which provides a great opportunity to get in on the ground floor.
