What the Zacks Model Unveils
Our proven model doesn’t conclusively predict an earnings beat for Pentair this time around. The combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) increases the chances of an earnings beat. However, that’s not the case here.
You can uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they're reported with our Earnings ESP Filter.
Earnings ESP: Pentair has an Earnings ESP of -1.14%.
Zacks Rank: Pentair currently carries a Zacks Rank of 2.
Key Factors to Note
PNR has been clearing out its inventory, which is expected to have continued in the first quarter and normalized levels are expected by the end of the second quarter or the third quarter of 2023. This ongoing optimization of inventory levels is expected to have impacted volume levels in the first quarter.
Pentair has been witnessing a tight supply of raw materials such as metals, resins and electronics along with rising logistics costs. While it has been implementing pricing actions and focusing on productivity improvements that may have negated these headwinds, supply-chain pressures and inflationary costs are likely to have weighed on the quarter’s performance.
However, pricing actions, gains from the Manitowoc Ice acquisition and expected benefits from the Transformation program might help offset the impact of higher costs and low volumes on the company’s first quarter results.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Consumer Solutions’ revenues is currently pegged at $635 million, suggesting a fall of 0.9% from the year-ago quarter. The consensus mark for this segment’s operating profit is pegged at $144 million, indicating year-over-year growth of 3.6%.
