Read MoreHide Full Article

Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (BR - Free Report) is set to report its third-quarter fiscal 2024 results on May 8, before the bell.

The company has an impressive earnings surprise history. Its earnings surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in all the trailing four quarters, delivering an average surprise of 6.5%.

Q3 Expectations

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues in the to-be-reported quarter is pegged at $1.76 billion, which indicates a 6.8% increase from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure. Expected growth is likely to have been driven by internal growth and new businesses, higher mutual fund proxy activity and higher event-driven mailings.

Our estimate for net revenues at Investor Communication Solutions is pegged at $1.33 billion, which suggests a year-over-year increase of 5.6%. Our estimate for net revenues in the Global Technology and Operations segment is pegged at $418.8 million, which indicates a year-over-year rise of 7.8%.

The consensus mark for earnings in the to-be-reported quarter is pegged at $2.23 per share, which suggests a year-over-year increase of 8.8%. We expect improved operating performance in the quarter, benefiting the bottom line.
