What’s Driving FSI?
Flexible Solutions is optimistic about maintaining its strong performance from the second quarter through the remainder of 2024. The company is well-positioned to seize emerging opportunities across various applications, including detergents, food, nutraceuticals, oil field extraction, turf management, ornamental products and agriculture.
These developments are expected to fuel growth in its NanoChem division and the Enhanced Nutritional Products (“ENP”) subsidiary. The NanoChem division, which generates roughly 70% of FSI’s revenues, is particularly poised for expansion with five products nearing the purchase order stage. The company expects to receive orders for at least two of these products by the end of this year. FSI anticipates revenue growth from its ENP line, particularly in the latter half of 2024.
From a financial standpoint, Flexible Solutions believes its current cash resources are sufficient to meet the company’s operational needs and support growth initiatives.
In the second quarter of 2024, FSI reported earnings per share (EPS) of 10 cents, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 7 cents. The company achieved net sales of $10.5 million, marking a 1.9% year-over-year increase and exceeding the consensus estimate of $10.3 million. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for FSI’s 2024 EPS is 29 cents, indicating 31.8% growth from the past year.
