RPM International Inc

RPM is scheduled to announce its Q1 earnings results on Tuesday, October 6th, before market open. The consensus EPS estimate is $1.95, up 3.7% year over year, and the consensus revenue estimate is $2.22B, up 5.2% year over year. Over the last 2 years, RPM has beaten EPS estimates 63% of the time and revenue estimates 75% of the time. Over the last 3 months, EPS estimates have seen 4 upward revisions and 3 downward, while revenue estimates have seen 5 upward revisions and 3 downward.

RPM International is scheduled to report first-quarter fiscal 2027 results on Oct. 6, before the opening bell, with the Zacks Consensus Estimate for adjusted earnings per share at $1.95, down slightly from $1.96 over the past 30 days but still indicating 3.7% growth from the year-ago figure of $1.88. The consensus mark for net sales stands at $2.22 billion, implying 4.9% year-over-year growth, while the company expects consolidated sales to rise in the mid-single-digit range, with each of its Construction Products Group, Performance Coatings Group and Consumer Group segments also expected to grow in the mid-single-digit range. RPM expects previously announced SG&A reductions to generate $25 million in benefits in the quarter, partly offset by higher health care and benefit expenses, and it anticipates 5-6% raw material inflation with pricing increases already implemented to offset that inflation on a dollar basis. Consolidated adjusted EBITDA is expected to increase year over year in the mid-single-digit range, though a temporary supplier issue affecting propylene oxide-derived raw materials is expected to weigh somewhat on first-quarter sales growth. The company's earnings ESP is -1.64% and it carries a Zacks Rank of 4 (Sell), so the model does not conclusively predict an earnings beat.
