Titan Machinery's Earnings Outlook

On Thursday, May 27, Titan Machinery TITN will release its latest earnings report. Benzinga's report can help you figure out the ins and outs of the earnings release.

Net Income, Earnings, And Earnings Per Share

Earnings and especially earnings per share (EPS) are useful measures of a company's profitability. Total earnings, which is also referred to as net income, equals total revenue minus total expenses. EPS equals to net income divided by the number of shares outstanding.

Earnings And Revenue

Titan Machinery earnings will be near $0.16 per share on sales of $337.66 million, according to analysts. Titan Machinery earnings in the same period a year ago was $0.15 per share. Quarterly sales came in at $310.21 million.

Why Analyst Estimates And Earnings Surprises Are Important

Wall Street analysts who study this company will publish analyst estimates of revenue and EPS. The averages of all analyst EPS and revenue estimates are called the "consensus estimates"; these consensus estimates can have a significant effect on a company's performance during an earnings release. When a company posts earnings or revenue above or below a consensus estimate, it has posted an "earnings surprise", which can really move a stock depending on the difference between actual and estimated values.

If the company were to match the consensus estimate when it reports Thursday, earnings would be up 6.67%. Revenue would be up 8.85% from the same quarter last year. Here is how the Titan Machinery's reported EPS has stacked up against analyst estimates in the past:

Quarter Q4 2021 Q3 2020 Q2 2020 Q1 2020
EPS Estimate 0.13 0.35 -0.01 -0.12
EPS Actual 0.23 0.58 0.29 0.15
Revenue Estimate 369.60 M 329.34 M 266.92 M 251.05 M
Revenue Actual 436.68 M 360.87 M 303.46 M 310.21 M
