Badger Meter (BMI) to Post Q3 Earnings: Key Factors to Note
Read MoreHide Full Article
Badger Meter (BMI - Free Report) is slated to report third-quarter results on Oct 19.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $172.9 million, which suggests growth of 16.8% from the year-ago levels. The consensus mark for earnings is pegged at 76 cents per share, indicating a year-over-year increase of 24.6%.
The company’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in each of the last four quarters, the average surprise being 6.7%.
The top-line performance in the third quarter is likely to have benefited from robust demand across business segments and increased adoption of its differentiated smart water solutions.
Demand for digital smart water solutions has been increasing owing to changing secular challenges in the water industry. In the last reported quarter, utility water sales rose 32% due to strong demand momentum.
The acquisition of Syrinix is likely to have acted as a tailwind. BMI is expected to have benefited from increasing customer backlogs and an improvement in the operating environment.
Healthy adoption of E-Series, ultrasonic meters, ORION Cellular endpoint and BEACON Software-as-a-Service augurs well. Apart from that, growing SaaS revenues is a major tailwind.
The Flow instrumentation segment is expected to have been aided by strong order trends across most of the water-focused end market and easing supply-chain woes. Also, effective spending controls are likely to have helped the company in improving its selling, engineering and administration expenses leverage.
However, rising global macroeconomic uncertainty and unfavorable foreign currency movement are likely to have been headwinds. Increasing competition in the digital smart water solutions space and higher research and development costs are concerns.
