Bruker Corporation&#39;s (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/brkr#NASDAQ">BRKR</a>) growth is backed by strong sales within its X-Ray and Nano Analytics businesses. Within the PCI division, expanding customer demand for pre-clinical MRI systems is highly encouraging. Meanwhile, the impact of macroeconomic pressure and currency fluctuation is likely to hurt the company&#39;s operational results.
In the past year, this Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) company&#39;s shares have gained 10.4% compared with the industry&#39;s 27.5% growth and the S&amp;P 500 composite&#39;s 34.9% gain.
This renowned medical device company has a market capitalization of $11.77 billion. It has a 2025 earnings growth rate of 17.6%, which is much higher than the industry&#39;s 13.8% growth rate. BRKR&#39;s earnings surpassed estimates in each of the trailing four quarters, the average surprise being 10.1%.
Let&#39;s delve deeper.
<h2>Bruker&#39;s Key Upsides</h2>
Bright Prospects Within Nano Business Segment:&nbsp;The segment caters to a large set of customers, such as academic institutions, governmental customers, nanotechnology companies, semiconductor companies, raw material manufacturers, industrial companies, biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies and other businesses that are involved in materials research and life science research analysis. The business is seeing robust revenue growth across its end markets, including academic, government, industrial and semiconductor metrology.&nbsp;
During the first half of 2024, the company&#39;s advanced X-Ray and Nano Analytics businesses delivered strong sales, backed by Nano&#39;s robust revenue growth. Nano&#39;s strong growth is driven by the rising demand in academic and government markets. The Nanostring acquisition is expected to be both strategically and financially beneficial, promising a high return on investment for Bruker.
The Potential of Preclinical Imaging (PCI) Market: Per Grand View Research, the global PCI market was valued at $4.30 billion in 2023 and is likely to witness a CAGR of 4.6% up to 2030. Therefore, this translates into a golden opportunity for Bruker to expand its foothold in the PCI market and earn higher profits from this division.
Bruker offers advanced PCI solutions for a broad spectrum of application fields. Moreover, this division is experiencing increasing customer demand for higher-strength pre-clinical magnetic resonance imaging systems. Earlier this year, Bruker filled a critical gap in its PCI portfolio with the acquisition of Spectral Instruments Imaging LLC, a leader in preclinical in-vivo optical imaging systems.
<h2>Bruker&#39;s Key Downsides</h2>
Unfavorable Currency Movement: Bruker generates a substantial portion of its revenues in the international markets, primarily in Germany and other countries in the European Union, Switzerland and Japan.&nbsp; As a result, currency fluctuations continue to result in foreign currency transaction losses for the company. In addition, currency fluctuations are likely to cause the price of Bruker&#39;s products to be less competitive than its principal competitors&#39; offerings.

Macroeconomic Factors:&nbsp;Present global economic challenges and uncertainties have made it harder for Bruker to manage operations and predict financial outcomes. Geopolitical conditions are impacting its operational results. In addition, supply-chain risks also persist. All these issues are leading to higher costs and expenditures for the company, impacting its profitability.
In the second quarter, Bruker&#39;s cost of revenues increased 21.6% from the same period in 2023. SG&amp;A expenses surged 24.4%.
<h2>BRKR&#39;s Estimate Trend</h2>
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Bruker&#39;s 2024 earnings per share remained unchanged at $2.61 for the past 30 days.
The consensus estimate for the company&#39;s 2024 revenues is pegged at $3.41 billion, indicating a 14.9% rise from the year-ago &nbsp;number.

Momentum investing revolves around the idea of following a stock&#39;s recent trend in either direction. In the &#39;long&#39; context, investors will be essentially be &quot;buying high, but hoping to sell even higher.&quot; With this methodology, taking advantage of trends in a stock&#39;s price is key; once a stock establishes a course, it is more than likely to continue moving that way. The goal is that once a stock heads down a fixed path, it will lead to timely and profitable trades.
Even though momentum is a popular stock characteristic, it can be tough to define. Debate surrounding which are the best and worst metrics to focus on is lengthy, but the Zacks Momentum Style Score, part of the Zacks Style Scores, helps address this issue for us.
Below, we take a look at Phibro Animal Health (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/pahc#NASDAQ">PAHC</a>), which currently has a Momentum Style Score of B. We also discuss some of the main drivers of the Momentum Style Score, like price change and earnings estimate revisions.
It&#39;s also important to note that Style Scores work as a complement to the Zacks Rank, our stock rating system that has an impressive track record of outperformance. Phibro Animal Health currently has a Zacks Rank of #2 (Buy). Our research shows that stocks rated Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) and #2 (Buy) and Style Scores of A or B outperform the market over the following one-month period.
<h2>Set to Beat the Market?</h2>
Let&#39;s discuss some of the components of the Momentum Style Score for PAHC that show why this maker of animal health products and nutritional supplements shows promise as a solid momentum pick.
A good momentum benchmark for a stock is to look at its short-term price activity, as this can reflect both current interest and if buyers or sellers currently have the upper hand. It is also useful to compare a security to its industry, as this can help investors pinpoint the top companies in a particular area.
For PAHC, shares are up 0.29% over the past week while the Zacks Medical - Products industry is flat over the same time period. Shares are looking quite well from a longer time frame too, as the monthly price change of 11.23% compares favorably with the industry&#39;s 1.3% performance as well.
While any stock can see a spike in price, it takes a real winner to consistently outperform the market. Over the past quarter, shares of Phibro Animal Health have risen 9.22%, and are up 55.61% in the last year. On the other hand, the S&amp;P 500 has only moved 3.12% and 23.92%, respectively.
Investors should also pay attention to PAHC&#39;s average 20-day trading volume. Volume is a useful item in many ways, and the 20-day average establishes a good price-to-volume baseline; a rising stock with above average volume is generally a bullish sign, whereas a declining stock on above average volume is typically bearish. PAHC is currently averaging 181,236 shares for the last 20 days.
<h2>Earnings Outlook</h2>
The Zacks Momentum Style Score also takes into account trends in estimate revisions, in addition to price changes. Please note that estimate revision trends remain at the core of Zacks Rank as well. A nice path here can help show promise, and we have recently been seeing that with PAHC.
Over the past two months, 2 earnings estimates moved higher compared to none lower for the full year. These revisions helped boost PAHC&#39;s consensus estimate, increasing from $1.42 to $1.46 in the past 60 days. Looking at the next fiscal year, 1 estimate has moved upwards while there have been no downward revisions in the same time period.
<h2>Bottom Line</h2>
Given these factors, it shouldn&#39;t be surprising that PAHC is a #2 (Buy) stock and boasts a Momentum Score of B. If you&#39;re looking for a fresh pick that&#39;s set to soar in the near-term, make sure to keep Phibro Animal Health on your short list.

<h2>Our Take on Phibro&#39;s Q4 Results</h2>
Phibro delivered better-than-expected revenues and earnings in the reported quarter. The core Animal Health segment benefited from the robust performance of the vaccine, MFAs and other businesses. Additionally, the Mineral Nutrition Products segment reported year-over-year growth.
The anticipated closing of the Zoetis Medicated Feed Additive portfolio acquisition in the coming months may lead to strong earnings accretion. It can also drive investments in the faster-growing vaccines, nutritional specialties and companion animal product segments.
Meanwhile, the contraction of the operating margin in the quarter is discouraging. Declining revenues from the Performance Products segment raise concern.

Cardinal Health, Inc.&nbsp;(NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cah#NYSE">CAH</a>) is scheduled to report fourth-quarter fiscal 2024 results on Aug 14, before the opening bell.
In the last reported quarter, the company delivered an earnings surprise of 6.67%. CAH&#39;s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in each of the trailing four quarters, delivering an average surprise of 12.91%.
<h3>Q4 Estimates</h3>
For the fiscal fourth quarter, the consensus mark for earnings is pegged at $1.72 per share, indicating an improvement of 10.9% from the prior-year quarter&#39;s reported figure. The same for revenues is pinned at $58.72 billion, implying growth of 9.9% year over year.
<h3>Factors to Note</h3>
From the fiscal third quarter of 2024, Cardinal Health started reporting its results under new operating segments &mdash; Pharmaceutical and Specialty solutions, Global Medical Products and Distribution (GMPD) segment, nuclear at-Home and OptiFreight.
The third quarter of fiscal 2024 witnessed an uptick in revenues in the Pharmaceutical segment, which amounted to approximately $50.7 billion, up 9% on a year-over-year basis. The Pharmaceutical Distribution and Specialty Solutions segment&#39;s performance highlighted branded pharmaceutical sales growth from existing customers. The segment&#39;s profit increased 4% during the fiscal third quarter. This momentum is likely to have continued in the&nbsp;fiscal fourth quarter&nbsp;as well. Moreover, the rising demand for GLP-1 medications is likely to have acted as a tailwind.
Higher contributions from brand and specialty products, as well as the effectiveness of the generics program, drove the positive outcome of the pharmaceutical segment in the last reported quarter. This trend is likely to have continued in the to-be-reported quarter as well.
Medical segment&#39;s revenues grew 4% year over year in the last reported quarter, driven by growth in at-Home Solutions and GMPD. The segment&#39;s profit was $20 million in the fiscal third quarter. This upside was driven by an improvement in net inflationary impacts, including mitigation initiatives, which are likely to have boosted the medical segment&#39;s results in the fiscal fourth quarter as well.
In March 2024, Cardinal Health completed the acquisition of Specialty Networks, which is likely to expand the company&#39;s offerings with physicians in the areas of urology, GI, and rheumatology. Specialty Networks is providing a proven platform in PPS analytics that the company is likely to further invest in fiscal 2025 and look to extend to other therapeutic areas such as oncology.
Per the third-quarter earnings call, CAH&#39;s integration of Specialty Networks is underway, and the reaction from the providers the company serves has been extremely encouraging. The platform&#39;s insight generation capabilities for clinicians are robust, which is likely to accelerate CAH&#39;s upstream data and research opportunities with biopharma manufacturers. The company is expected to provide further updates in this regard in the to-be-reported quarter.
The company announced its new distribution center being built in South Carolina, which, per management, features the fastest order fulfillment system per square foot in the market. The center is scheduled to open by early next fiscal year. New distribution centers are likely to aid the company&#39;s supply chain, thus improving revenues. Cardinal Health is likely to provide further updates in this regard in the to-be-reported quarter.

What's in Store for Cardinal Health in Q4 Earnings?

Cencora (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cor#NYSE">COR</a>) is scheduled to release third-quarter fiscal 2024 results on Jul 31, before the opening bell.
In the last reported quarter, the company delivered an earnings surprise of 4.11%. Its earnings beat estimates in each of the trailing four quarters, delivering an average surprise of 6.12%.
<h3>Q3 Estimates</h3>
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $73.58 billion, indicating an improvement of 9.9% from the top line reported in the prior-year quarter. The consensus mark for earnings is pinned at $3.18 per share, implying growth of 8.9% from the year-ago quarter&#39;s recorded number.
<h3>Factors to Note</h3>
Sustained strong growth in specialty product sales, coupled with broad-based solid performance and utilization trends across the portfolio in the U.S. Healthcare Solutions segment, might have favored COR&#39;s fiscal third-quarter performance. High demand for the recently-approved GLP-1 drugs for diabetes and/or weight loss is likely to have boosted growth. Moreover, the new distribution center in California should have continued to support its scale of supply.
The commercial COVID-19 treatments recorded lower sales in the past two quarters. This trend is likely to have continued in the soon-to-be-reported quarter. The company raised its fiscal 2024 revenue growth guidance for the U.S. Healthcare Solutions segment from 7-10% to 11-13%. This may be reflected in the fiscal third-quarter results as well. Our model expects revenues for this segment to be $66.13 billion.
Operating income at the aforementioned segment is anticipated to grow 10-12% in fiscal 2024. This is likely to be reflected in the fiscal third-quarter results. Our model predicts the segment&#39;s adjusted operating income to be $665.9 million.
Apart from this, the International Healthcare Solutions segment is expected to have exhibited solid performance on the back of increased sales in its European distribution and Canadian businesses. Moreover, the addition of products with the PharmaLex acquisition last year is likely to have generated additional revenues.
Per fiscal 2024, revenues and operating income at the International Healthcare Solutions segment are estimated to grow 4-7% and 5-8%, respectively. This is likely to be reflected in the upcoming quarterly results. Our model expects the segment&#39;s adjusted operating income and revenues to be $189.4 million and $7.35 billion, respectively.
Although revenues and operating income are likely to have been on the higher side, gross margin growth is anticipated to have been weak. This is due to higher volumes of low-margin GLP-1 products, coupled with lower volumes of high-margin government-owned COVID treatments.

Cencora to Report Q3 Earnings: Is a Beat in Store?

Stryker Corporation (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/syk#NYSE">SYK</a>) is scheduled to release second-quarter 2024 results on Jul 30, after market close. In the last reported quarter, the company delivered an earnings surprise of 6.38%.
<h3>Q2 Estimates</h3>
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings is pegged at $2.79 per share, indicating an increase of 9.8% year over year.
The consensus mark for revenues is pinned at $5.41 billion, implying growth of 8.2% from the prior-year quarter&#39;s reported figure.
<h3>Factors to Note</h3>
Stryker&#39;s MedSurg and Neurotechnology segment witnessed substantial sales growth on the back of the robust performance of its subsegments in the past two quarters. Strong performances in the United States, Canada, Australia, Europe, Japan and most emerging markets also boosted revenues. This trend is likely to have continued in the second quarter.
Growth across Orthopaedics &amp; Spine&#39;s Hip, Knee, and Trauma and Extremities subsegments might have favored the segment&#39;s performance on the back of continued procedural growth, strong uptake of the Insignia Hip Stem and robust Mako sales.
Stryker is committed to the sustained expansion of Mako, reflecting robust demand for this differentiated robotic technology. This heightened demand, along with rising installations, is likely to have contributed to the Orthopaedics &amp; Spine segment&#39;s performance in the soon-to-be-reported quarter. Moreover, an improving hospital budget is likely to have kept the order book strong.
SYK witnessed a very strong momentum for its 1788 camera system since its launch in September 2023. The strong initial uptake might have continued in the soon-to-be-reported quarter, thereby driving additional revenues. Moreover, the launch of the Gamma4 Hip Fracture Nailing System in Europe and the LIFEPAK 35 monitor/defibrillator in the United States is likely to have brought in additional revenues during the second quarter.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the MedSurg and Neurotechnology, and the Orthopaedics &amp; Spine segments&#39; sales is pegged at $3.12 billion and $2.29 billion, respectively. U.S. and international sales are estimated to be $3.98 billion and $1.39 billion, respectively.
The company&#39;s prospects in 2024 seem promising on the back of ongoing procedural recovery, a strong order book for capital equipment and an improvement in price, along with a strong pipeline of innovation. However, the ongoing pressure in China due to volume-based procurement policy is likely to have partially offset international growth.
Stryker is working toward alleviating the ongoing inflationary pressure. It continued to recognize improved pricing and reduced cost pressure in the past couple of quarters. This is likely to have benefited gross margin during the second quarter.
The company is also looking to expand its presence in the market through acquisitions. In June, it signed a deal to acquire Artelon, a privately held company specializing in innovative soft tissue fixation products for foot and ankle and sports medicine procedures. SYK may provide its integration synergies for SERF SAS on its second-quarter earnings call.

Stryker to Report Q2 Earnings: What's in the Cards?

Phibro Animal Health (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/pahc#NASDAQ">PAHC</a>) could be a solid addition to your portfolio given its recent upgrade to a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy). This rating change essentially reflects an upward trend in earnings estimates -- one of the most powerful forces impacting stock prices.
The sole determinant of the Zacks rating is a company&#39;s changing earnings picture. The Zacks Consensus Estimate -- the consensus of EPS estimates from the sell-side analysts covering the stock -- for the current and following years is tracked by the system.
The power of a changing earnings picture in determining near-term stock price movements makes the Zacks rating system highly useful for individual investors, since it can be difficult to make decisions based on rating upgrades by Wall Street analysts. These are mostly driven by subjective factors that are hard to see and measure in real time.
Therefore, the Zacks rating upgrade for Phibro basically reflects positivity about its earnings outlook that could translate into buying pressure and an increase in its stock price.
Most Powerful Force Impacting Stock Prices
The change in a company&#39;s future earnings potential, as reflected in earnings estimate revisions, has proven to be strongly correlated with the near-term price movement of its stock. The influence of institutional investors has a partial contribution to this relationship, as these big professionals use earnings and earnings estimates to calculate the fair value of a company&#39;s shares. An increase or decrease in earnings estimates in their valuation models simply results in higher or lower fair value for a stock, and institutional investors typically buy or sell it. Their bulk investment action then leads to price movement for the stock.
Fundamentally speaking, rising earnings estimates and the consequent rating upgrade for Phibro imply an improvement in the company&#39;s underlying business. Investors should show their appreciation for this improving business trend by pushing the stock higher.
Harnessing the Power of Earnings Estimate Revisions
Empirical research shows a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and near-term stock movements, so it could be truly rewarding if such revisions are tracked for making an investment decision. Here is where the tried-and-tested Zacks Rank stock-rating system plays an important role, as it effectively harnesses the power of earnings estimate revisions.
The Zacks Rank stock-rating system, which uses four factors related to earnings estimates to classify stocks into five groups, ranging from Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) to Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell), has an impressive externally-audited track record, with Zacks Rank #1 stocks generating an average annual return of +25% since 1988.
Earnings Estimate Revisions for Phibro
For the fiscal year ending June 2024, this maker of animal health products and nutritional supplements is expected to earn $1.13 per share, which is a change of -6.6% from the year-ago reported number.
Analysts have been steadily raising their estimates for Phibro. Over the past three months, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company has increased 0.9%.
Bottom Line
Unlike the overly optimistic Wall Street analysts whose rating systems tend to be weighted toward favorable recommendations, the Zacks rating system maintains an equal proportion of &#39;buy&#39; and &#39;sell&#39; ratings for its entire universe of more than 4000 stocks at any point in time. Irrespective of market conditions, only the top 5% of the Zacks-covered stocks get a &#39;Strong Buy&#39; rating and the next 15% get a &#39;Buy&#39; rating. So, the placement of a stock in the top 20% of the Zacks-covered stocks indicates its superior earnings estimate revision feature, making it a solid candidate for producing market-beating returns in the near term.
The upgrade of Phibro to a Zacks Rank #1 positions it in the top 5% of the Zacks-covered stocks in terms of estimate revisions, implying that the stock might move higher in the near term.

Phibro Animal Health (PAHC) Receives a Sell from Barclays

The pet care industry is expected to witness immense growth owing to a surge in pet adoptions, veterinary innovations, and rising disposable income. Thus, one could scoop up shares of fundamentally solid pet-care stocks with tail-wagging potential, like Zoetis (ZTS), Chewy (CHWY), and PetIQ (PETQ). Read more… The pet care industry is witnessing remarkable growth driven by a surge in global pet adoptions and significant advancements in veterinary care. Concurrently, the increased investment by pet owners in care and accessories is expected to bolster strong growth prospects for the sector.
Given this backdrop, investors could consider loading up on shares of fundamentally sound pet care stocks Zoetis Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/ZTS/">ZTS</a>), Chewy, Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/CHWY/">CHWY</a>), and  PetIQ, Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/PETQ/">PETQ</a>) that seem well positioned to capitalize on the industry tailwinds.
In recent times, pet adoption has increased drastically, and the trend continues. A substantial number of American households own a pet, with dogs being the most popular. <a href="https://www.forbes.com/advisor/pet-insurance/pet-adoption-statistics/">Pet ownership</a> is increasing particularly amongst young generations, with millennials having the highest share of pet owners at 33%.
Advancements in technology are also transforming veterinary medicine, leading to improved diagnostic capabilities, innovative treatment options, and enhanced medical devices. Innovations like telemedicine, digital imaging, minimally invasive surgeries, and advanced laboratory diagnostics have significantly upgraded the quality of animal care and broadened the scope of veterinary services.
According to a Grand View Research study, the U.S. veterinary medicine market is expected to grow at <a href="https://www.grandviewresearch.com/industry-analysis/us-veterinary-medicine-market-report">a CAGR of 6.8%</a> from 2024 to 2030. This growth is projected to push the market to a substantial $21.80 billion, reflecting the increasing demand for advanced veterinary care.
Moreover, an increase in disposable income has further fueled higher pet ownership rates, prompting greater investment in pet care products like accessories, health items, and fashion. According to the Bureau of Economic Analysis data, disposable personal income <a href="https://www.bea.gov/news/2024/personal-income-and-outlays-july-2024">rose by $54.8 billion</a> or 0.3% in July 2024.
Looking forward, as per a report by Mordor Intelligence, the pet care market is expected to reach $24.59 billion by 2029, expanding at a <a href="https://www.mordorintelligence.com/industry-reports/pet-care-market">CAGR of 4.2%</a>.
