Terex Corporation Price and Consensus

The reason for the favorable Zacks Rank is the series of positive earnings estimate revisions coming from analysts .Over the last thirty days, eight analysts have increased their earnings estimates for the current year while seven have done so for next year. The bullish sentiment has increased the Zacks Consensus Estimate from $2.54 to $3.00 for the current year and from $3.81 to $4.30 for next year.

Those revisions call for some serious growth. Current year sales growth is estimated to come in at 26.95% while next year is slated to come in at 11.15%. That translates to EPS growth of 2,200% for the current year and 43.12% for next year. This most recent quarter’s $1.02 EPS number was 92% better-than-expected. That follows up to last quarter’s great 154% earnings beat.
