Honda Motor (HMC) Stock Moves -0.03%: What You Should Know
Read MoreHide Full Article
Honda Motor (HMC - Free Report) closed at $35.23 in the latest trading session, marking a -0.03% move from the prior day. This change was narrower than the S&P 500's daily loss of 0.23%. Elsewhere, the Dow lost 0.31%, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq lost 0.09%.
Heading into today, shares of the automaker had gained 14.12% over the past month, outpacing the Auto-Tires-Trucks sector's gain of 6.22% and the S&P 500's loss of 1.43% in that time.
Wall Street will be looking for positivity from Honda Motor as it approaches its next earnings report date. On that day, Honda Motor is projected to report earnings of $0.69 per share, which would represent a year-over-year decline of 13.75%. Meanwhile, our latest consensus estimate is calling for revenue of $32.12 billion, up 4.19% from the prior-year quarter.
Looking at the full year, our Zacks Consensus Estimates suggest analysts are expecting earnings of $3.91 per share and revenue of $134.63 billion. These totals would mark changes of +29.04% and +7.52%, respectively, from last year.
Investors should also note any recent changes to analyst estimates for Honda Motor. Recent revisions tend to reflect the latest near-term business trends. As a result, we can interpret positive estimate revisions as a good sign for the company's business outlook.
Our research shows that these estimate changes are directly correlated with near-term stock prices. To benefit from this, we have developed the Zacks Rank, a proprietary model which takes these estimate changes into account and provides an actionable rating system.
The Zacks Rank system, which ranges from #1 (Strong Buy) to #5 (Strong Sell), has an impressive outside-audited track record of outperformance, with #1 stocks generating an average annual return of +25% since 1988. Over the past month, the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate has moved 2.9% lower. Honda Motor currently has a Zacks Rank of #3 (Hold).
Investors should also note Honda Motor's current valuation metrics, including its Forward P/E ratio of 9.01. Its industry sports an average Forward P/E of 7.03, so we one might conclude that Honda Motor is trading at a premium comparatively.
Meanwhile, HMC's PEG ratio is currently 0.56. The PEG ratio is similar to the widely-used P/E ratio, but this metric also takes the company's expected earnings growth rate into account. The Automotive - Foreign was holding an average PEG ratio of 0.55 at yesterday's closing price.
The Automotive - Foreign industry is part of the Auto-Tires-Trucks sector. This group has a Zacks Industry Rank of 97, putting it in the top 39% of all 250+ industries.
The Zacks Industry Rank gauges the strength of our individual industry groups by measuring the average Zacks Rank of the individual stocks within the groups. Our research shows that the top 50% rated industries outperform the bottom half by a factor of 2 to 1.
