As we approach a special day for millions of mothers across the United States, I feel compelled to speak of millions of women suffering from a relatively unknown medical condition. Recently, after hearing a lecture by a wonderful philanthropist, I was shocked to learn about obstetric fistula.

EUR/USD made fresh lows as the dollar continues to flex its muscles after a day of better performance from the US calendar. At the same time, the FOMC was hawkish enough without any surprises one way or the other for markets to expect a rate hike in June.

Dallas, TX-based Trinity Industries Inc. TRN is a provider of products and services to the energy, transportation, chemical, and construction sectors across the globe. The company is scheduled to report first-quarter 2017 results on Apr 25, after market close.
In the fourth quarter of 2016, the company had posted a positive earnings surprise of 15.79%. Moreover, the company’s earnings surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in three of the last four quarters, with an average beat of 12.94%. Let’s see how things are shaping up for this announcement.
Factors Likely at Play
The company’s first-quarter results are expected to be hurt primarily by weak market conditions as well as weak demand for railcars. High costs and adverse foreign currency movement may also hamper the company’s top line.
The Rail Group segment, which recorded disastrous results in the fourth quarter, is expected to continue its poor run in the first quarter as well. Also, the Inland Barge Group might also come up with a below-par performance in the first quarter, mainly due to lower barge deliveries.
On the brighter side, the Construction Products Group of the company might perform well in the first quarter. Segmental results are likely to be aided by its construction aggregates and highway products operations. Moreover, Trinity stands to benefit from a favorable financial position. Notably, we are pleased by the company’s efforts to reward shareholders through dividend payments.
Earnings Whispers
Our proven model does not conclusively show that Trinity Industries is likely to beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate this quarter. This is because a stock needs to have both a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) for this to happen. Unfortunately, this is not the case here, as elaborated below.
Zacks ESP: Trinity Industries has an Earnings ESP of 0.00%. This is because both the Most Accurate estimate and the Zacks Consensus Estimate are pegged at 28 cents. You can uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they’re reported with our Earnings ESP Filter.
Zacks Rank: Trinity Industries carriesa Zacks Rank #3 which increases the predictive power of ESP. However, the company’s 0.00% ESP complicates our surprise prediction.
Note that we caution against stocks with Zacks Ranks #4 or 5 (Sell rated) going into an earnings announcement, especially when the company is seeing negative estimate revisions.

Allegiant Travel Company ALGT is scheduled to report its first-quarter 2017 results on Apr 25, after market closes.
In the fourth quarter of 2016, the company’s earnings of $2.48 beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 8 cents. Quarterly revenues increased 8% year over year to $336 million and also surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $334 million. Network growth boosted results.
However, things might not be so rosy for the company in the first quarter. The negative sentiment surrounding the stock can be gauged from the fact that the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the first quarter has decreased 4.3% over the last seven days.
In fact, the Allegiant Travel stock has struggled of late, underperforming the Zacks categorized Transportation-Airline industry in the last three months. The stock was down 8.7% as against the industry’s gain of 3.8%.
What Does Our Model Indicate?
Our quantitative model too does not show conclusively that Allegiant Travel will beat earnings in the first quarter of 2017. According to our proven model, a company needs the right combination of two key ingredients – a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) or better – to increase the odds of an earnings surprise. However, that is not the case as highlighted below.
Zacks ESP: Allegiant Travel has an Earnings ESP of -2.27%. This is because the Most Accurate estimate is 6 cents, below the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2.64 per share. You can uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they’re reported with our Earnings ESP Filter.
Zacks Rank: Allegiant Travel carriesa Zacks Rank #3 which increases the predictive power of ESP. However, the company’s -2.27% ESP complicates our surprise prediction.
Note that we caution against stocks with Zacks Ranks #4 or 5 (Sell rated) going into an earnings announcement, especially when the company is seeing a negative estimate revision.
Factors Likely at Play
We expect the company’s bottom line in the first quarter of 2017 to be hurt by increased labor costs. Higher fuel costs (projected at $1.81 per gallon in the first quarter) are also expected to limit bottom line growth. But cost per available seat mile excluding fuel is projected to increase in the band of 11.6% to 12%.
The shift of Easter into April is expected to hurt the top line in the quarter. The company expects total revenue per available seat mile (TRASM) to decline in the range of 4.4% to 4.8% in the first quarter. However, traffic (total system) for the first quarter is projected to increase 7.5%, that compares unfavorably to the increase of 10.9% in the fourth quarter of 2016. Load factor (percentage of seats filled by passengers) is projected to decline 380 basis points (bps) in the first quarter, which too is worse than the 170 bps reduction witnessed in the fourth quarter of 2016.
We are however impressed by the company’s efforts to expand and are also encouraged by its efforts to reward shareholders.
