Factors to Decide Archer Daniels' (ADM) Fate in Q1 Earnings
Read MoreHide Full Article
Archer Daniels Midland Company (ADM - Free Report) is slated to report first-quarter 2022 results on Apr 26, before market open. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company’s first-quarter earnings is pegged at $1.35 per share, which suggests a decline of 2.9% from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure. However, the consensus mark has moved up 1.5% in the past seven days. For first-quarter revenues, the consensus mark is pegged at $19.1 billion, suggesting 1.3% growth from the prior-year quarter’s reported figure.
In the last reported quarter, the company delivered an earnings surprise of 10.3%. Its earnings outperformed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 21.9%, on average, in the trailing four quarters.
Key Factors to Note
Archer Daniels has been gaining from solid demand and continued growth in the Nutrition segment. Significant gains in the Human and Animal Nutrition units have been aiding the Nutrition business. The trends are expected to have continued in the first quarter.
Within the Human Nutrition unit, the positive mix in EMEAI, the solid performance in North America and strength in the flavors business are expected to have aided the company. Sales growth in plant-based proteins is likely to have aided the Specialty Ingredients unit. In contrast, robust sales in bioactives and fermentation are expected to have contributed to the Health & Wellness category. Also, the company’s efforts to build a one-stop-shop with top-notch ingredients and solutions for the Human Nutrition unit by investing in bolt-on acquisitions are likely to have aided the first-quarter performance.
The Animal Nutrition unit is expected to have witnessed a continued positive demand for amino acids. The company’s recent buyouts and joint ventures are expected to have leveraged the rising demand for pet food, sustainable fuel and plant-based products, in turn, aiding the first-quarter performance.
The company has been making efforts to develop products, boost operating capabilities and expand its solutions portfolio, which forms part of its Carbohydrate Solutions unit. Such endeavors are expected to have aided the company’s top line in the quarter under review.
However, Archer Daniels has been exposed to headwinds, including higher performance-related compensation, project-related costs, and the shifting of costs from business segments to the centralized centers of excellence in the supply chain and operations. Also, higher input costs, including energy costs in EMEA in its Starches and Sweeteners subsegment within the Carbohydrate Solutions segment, are anticipated to have been concerning.
