FactSet’s Q3 Expectations

The consensus estimate for FactSet’s fiscal third-quarter revenues is pegged at $581.3 million, indicating a 5.2% increase from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure.

We anticipate revenues from the Americas to be $374.8 million, indicating 5.2% year-over-year growth. Strength in wealth and hedge funds is likely to have boosted FDS’s revenues across the Americas. EMEA revenues are estimated to increase 4.2% from the year-ago quarter’s actuals to $147.2 million. Continued momentum across hedge funds and private equity venture capital (“PEVC”) across the EMEA region is anticipated to have improved revenues.

Revenues from the Asia Pacific are anticipated to be $58.4 million, implying a 6.2% increase on a year-over-year basis. Robust sales of Data Solutions, mainly among wealth, corporates, hedge funds and PEVC firms, are anticipated to have resulted in increasing FDS’s revenues across the Asia Pacific region.

The consensus mark for earnings is pegged at $4.31 per share, suggesting a 1.4% fall on a year-over-year basis.
