Stay up-to-date with all quarterly releases: See Zacks Earnings Calendar.
Factors Likely to Have Shaped HWM’s Quarterly Performance
Howmet Aerospace’s Engine products segment is expected to have benefited from robust momentum in the commercial aerospace, defense aerospace, industrial gas turbine and oil & gas markets. Solid demand for engine spares in aerospace markets, supported by the U.S. fighter program, is likely to have driven the segment’s performance. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the segment’s revenues is pegged at $945 million, indicating a 17.9% rise from the third-quarter 2023 number.
Growth in the commercial aerospace market, including emerging wide-body aircraft recovery, is likely to have supported the Fastening Systems segment's performance. The consensus estimate for segmental revenues is pegged at $386 million, indicating a 10.9% increase from the year-ago quarter’s number.
Growth in the commercial aerospace market, including wide-body aircraft recovery, and the defense aerospace market is expected to have driven the Engineered Structures segment’s performance. The consensus estimate for the segment’s revenues is pegged at $270 million, indicating an increase of 18.9% from the year-ago quarter’s figure.
However, softness in the commercial transportation market is likely to have hurt the Forged Wheels segment. The consensus estimate for the segment’s revenues is pegged at $258 million, indicating a decline of 9.5% from a year ago.
Escalating costs and expenses, due to raw material inflation, are also likely to have partially dented Howmet Aerospace’s bottom line.
Amid this backdrop, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company’s revenues is pegged at $1.85 billion, indicating an increase of 11.8% from the year-ago quarter’s figure. The consensus estimate for adjusted earnings is pinned at 65 cents per share, indicating 41.3% growth from the year-ago quarter’s number.
Our proven model predicts an earnings beat for HWM this time around. The combination of a positiveEarnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) increases the odds of an earnings beat, which is the case here, as elaborated below.

Performance of Another Company
