Investor takeaway: Revenue grew, but the EPS miss and narrower EBITDA margin show that Foraco is converting less of its sales into earnings. FAR has missed estimates in each of its last four reported quarters, though the size of the misses has varied. Analyst targets and the Wealth Awesome statistical model point to potential upside from the latest close, but they don’t remove the company’s operating or share-price risks.
C$0.06 EPS, versus C$0.08 expected
The 25% miss is Foraco’s fourth consecutive quarter without an earnings beat. The previous quarter came in at C$0.06, in line with estimates. Results in March and December were 4.3% and 50% below estimates, respectively.
Bull case
Supplemental coverage reports that Q3 revenue rose 21.4% year over year to US$86.2 million, while EBITDA increased 8.1% to US$15.4 million. Continued growth could lift earnings if margins stabilize. The average analyst target of C$4.75 is well above the C$2.50 close. The Wealth Awesome model’s 90-day mean is C$2.81.
Bear case
EPS came in 25% below estimate, and FAR has missed estimates in each of its last four reported quarters. Supplemental coverage says net profit fell to US$4.4 million from US$5.5 million, while EBITDA margin narrowed to 17.8% from 20.0%, despite higher revenue. FAR also closed below its 50-day and 200-day moving averages. The statistical forecast’s 95% range reaches as low as C$1.82.
