See the Zacks Earnings Calendar to stay ahead of market-making news.
Teledyne delivered a four-quarter earnings surprise of 3.47%, on average. Improved sales expectations from two of its four business segments are likely to have boosted TDY’s overall third-quarter top line. However, supply-chain issues might have impacted the bottom line.
Strong defense-related sales at Teledyne FLIR and solid sales volume for its legacy space-based infrared imaging detectors are expected to have boosted the Digital Imaging Sales unit’s revenue performance. However, poor sales performance from the industrial machine vision market might have hurt the overall top-line growth of this segment.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the Digital Imaging segment’s third-quarter revenues is pegged at $772.1 million. This indicates a decline of 0.5% from the top line reported in the year-ago quarter.
The Instrumentation unit’s revenue performance in the third quarter is likely to have benefited from strong offshore energy and subsea defense, along with strong sales of drug discovery and laboratory instruments.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the Instrumentation segment’s revenues is pegged at $346 million, implying a year-over-year rise of 5.1%.
Due to the rapidly growing commercial air traffic in recent times, solid sales of TDY’s commercial aerospace products are expected to have bolstered its Aerospace & Defense Electronics segment’s revenues in the third quarter. Also, higher sales of defense microwave products are likely to have aided this unit’s overall performance.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Aerospace and Defense Electronics’ third-quarter revenues is pegged at $196.1 million, implying growth of 7% from the top line reported in the year-ago quarter.
Lower sales of energy systems and engineered products are likely to have hurt Engineered Systems’ revenues.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter revenues is pegged at $110.4 million, implying a decline of 3.4% from the top line reported in the year-ago quarter.
While two of its major four segments are expected to report a notable decline in their quarterly revenues, the other two segments are likely to witness impressive top-line performance. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $1.42 billion, implying a rise of 1.6% from the top line reported in the year-ago quarter.
Despite favorable revenue expectations, persistent supply-chain challenges and cost inflation impact can be projected to have put a dent in TDY’s overall bottom-line performance.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter earnings is pegged at $4.97 per share, indicating a 1.6% decline from the prior-year reported figure.
