Earnings Outlook For Luxfer Holdings

Luxfer Holdings LXFR announces its next round of earnings this Monday, July 26. Here is Benzinga's everything-that-matters guide for this Monday's Q2 earnings announcement.

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

Sell-side analysts expect Luxfer Holdings's EPS to be near $0.29 on sales of $93.65 million. In the same quarter last year, Luxfer Holdings reported earnings per share of $0.17 on sales of $89.50 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.

The analyst consensus estimate would represent a 70.59% increase in the company's earnings. Sales would be up 4.64% from the same quarter last year. Here is how the company's reported EPS has stacked up against analyst estimates in the past:

Quarter Q1 2021 Q4 2020 Q3 2020 Q2 2020
EPS Estimate 0.24 0.22 0.19 0.14
EPS Actual 0.39 0.27 0.25 0.17
Revenue Estimate 83.27 M 89.25 M 89.77 M 85.15 M
Revenue Actual 85.20 M 82.10 M 90.40 M 89.50 M
