Badger Meter (BMI) to Post Q4 Earnings: Key Factors to Note
Read MoreHide Full Article
Badger Meter (BMI - Free Report) is slated to report fourth-quarter results on Jan 26.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $1780.7 million, which suggests growth of 22.7% from the year-ago levels. The consensus mark for earnings is pegged at 80 cents per share, indicating a year-over-year increase of 33.3%.
The company’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in each of the last four quarters, the average surprise being 10.3%.
The company’s performance in the fourth quarter is likely to have benefited from robust demand for smart water solutions and improving operating environment. Also, the company’s acquisition of Syrinix is likely to have acted as a tailwind.
Increasing demand for digital smart water solutions owing to changing secular challenges in the water industry is expected to have acted as a major tailwind. In the last reported quarter, utility water sales rose 31%, owing to strong demand momentum.
Rising adoption of E-Series volume, cellular AMI solution, ORION Cellular endpoint sales and higher BEACON Software-as-a-Service revenues are likely to have acted as major tailwinds. Also, solid adoption of water quality and pressure monitoring systems is a tailwind.
However, the company’s performance in the fourth quarter might have been impacted due to rising global macroeconomic constraints. Increasing competition in the digital smart water solutions space and rising research and development costs are concerns.
