C.H. Robinson Worldwide, Inc. Price and EPS Surprise
An improvement in freight market conditions may aid top-line results in the fourth quarter. Our estimate for revenues from the service line transportation segment is pegged at $4.17 billion, up 6% from the fourth-quarter 2023 actuals. Meanwhile, the forecast for revenues from the sourcing segment is pegged at $380.8 million.
Our estimates for North American Surface Transportation’s fourth-quarter revenues are pegged at $3 billion, which indicates a 0.3% increase from the year-ago reported figure. Revenues from the Global Forwarding segment are anticipated to be $878 million, which implies a 23.3% increase from the year-ago reported figure.
We also expect CHRW's operational efficiency, driven by its robust cost-cutting initiatives, to have bolstered the company’s bottom-line performance in the to-be-reported quarter. However, high capital expenditure may have an adverse impact on the company’s prospects in the December-end quarter.
