Titan Machinery Inc. (TITN Quick QuoteTITN - Free Report) is scheduled to report third-quarter fiscal 2023 results (ended Oct 31, 2022) before the market opens on Nov 30.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for TITN’s third-quarter revenues is currently pegged at $655 million, indicating an improvement of 44.3% from the prior-year fiscal quarter’s reported figure. The consensus mark for earnings stands at $1.15 per share, suggesting growth of 19.8% from the year-ago fiscal quarter’s reading. The earnings estimates have been constant over the past 60 days.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the Agriculture segment’s revenues for the fiscal third quarter is pegged at $393 million, suggesting growth of 39.4% from the year-ago fiscal quarter’s reported figure. The segment’s results are likely to benefit from strong demand in the agricultural sector and recent acquisitions. Strong performance has been driving the segment’s revenues lately. Income before tax for this segment is expected to be $24.4 million compared with the reported income of $19.6 million in the last year's comparable fiscal quarter. 

 

The estimated net sales of the Construction segment are $79 million for the to-be-reported quarter. This indicates a decline from the net sales of $80 million reported in the previous year’s fiscal quarter. The sales are likely to be impacted by the lost contributions from the divestiture of construction stores in Montana and Wyoming, and consumer products stores in North Dakota. Nevertheless, this might have been somewhat negated by strong equipment demand, strength in parts, service and rental and improved oil prices. Income before tax for this segment is estimated at $5.5 million, suggesting a 54.5% increase from the previous fiscal year's quarterly reading.

 

For the International segment, the consensus mark for revenues is pegged at $84 million, suggesting a drop of 9.7% from the prior-year fiscal quarter’s $93 million. The results will bear the impact of disruptions in the Ukraine business. Besides, this segment is likely to have faced supply-chain challenges that might affect the results. The estimated income before taxes for this segment is $6.30 compared with the year-ago fiscal quarter’s $6.26 million. The performance will likely be aided by improved farmer sentiments, global commodity prices and good crop conditions.
