Read MoreHide Full Article
Wall Street analysts expect Idexx Laboratories (IDXX - Free Report) to post quarterly earnings of $3.14 per share in its upcoming report, which indicates a year-over-year increase of 12.1%. Revenues are expected to be $1.07 billion, up 9.7% from the year-ago quarter.
The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has undergone an upward revision of 0.5% in the past 30 days, bringing it to its present level. This represents how the covering analysts, as a whole, have reassessed their initial estimates during this timeframe.
