Estimate Trend

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter earnings witnessed no revisions in the past 30 days. It is currently pegged at 6 cents per share.

The consensus mark for revenues stands at $15.3 million, implying a year-over-year improvement of 19.1%.

Factors to Consider

The pricing scenario of oil and natural gas was impressive in the third quarter of this year. Per data provided by the U.S. Energy Information Administration, the average West Texas Intermediate crude prices per barrel in July, August and September were $76.07, $81.39 and $89.43, respectively. Although the prices were not as high as in the year-ago quarter, the commodity prices were impressive and healthy.

Like oil, natural gas prices in the September quarter were healthier than in the second quarter. Thus, favorable energy business environment is likely to have increased demand for burner management products and services. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for net sales of products for the September quarter is pegged at $14.42 million, suggesting an improvement from $11.90 million a year-ago quarter.
