Woodward (WWD) to Report Q4 Earnings: What's in the Cards?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Woodward, Inc. (WWD - Free Report) is scheduled to report fourth-quarter fiscal 2019 financial results on Nov 18, after the closing bell. In the last reported quarter, the company delivered a positive earnings surprise of 11.1%. Markedly, Woodward topped the Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings in each of the trailing four quarters, delivering an average beat of 20.1%.
The company is likely to report higher aggregate revenues on a year-over-year basis in the quarter under review, on the back of strong performance in Aerospace segment and steady improvements in Industrial segment.
Net sales at Aerospace segment, which accounts for the lion’s share of total sales, are expected to be $491 million. This indicates an increase of 6.5% year over year. The company is likely to have benefited from strength across commercial OEM and military markets.
For the September quarter, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for total revenues stands at $740 million. The company reported $719 million in the prior-year quarter. Consequently, adjusted earnings per share are pegged at $1.29. The same was $1.39, posted a year ago.
