what happened
Industrial distributor Global Industrial will report third-quarter earnings after the market closes on Tuesday, according to StockStory. Last quarter the company posted revenue of $386.6 million, up 7.7% year on year, beating analysts' revenue forecasts, while EPS came in line with estimates.
This quarter the market expects revenue to rise 9% year on year, compared with a 3.3% gain in the same quarter a year earlier. Analysts have broadly reaffirmed their estimates over the past 30 days. However, the company has missed Wall Street's revenue estimates several times over the last two years. The stock was flat over the past month, trading at $43.40, against an average analyst price target of $40.50.
Peers offer mixed signals. WESCO grew revenue 16.6% and beat expectations by 5.1%, yet its shares fell 1.2%. Fastenal raised revenue 15.5%, topping estimates by 1%, but its stock dropped 2%.
why it matters
Results from WESCO and Fastenal give a read on demand across industrial distribution and maintenance and repair markets. The sector has averaged a decline of about 3% over the last month, so investors are watching whether revenue growth holds up. For the broader market this is a modest event.
