The adhesive dispenser maker reported adjusted earnings of $2.42 per share for the quarter ended April 30, surpassing analysts' estimates of $2.36 per share. Additionally, the company's quarterly revenue of $683 million exceeded expectations of $672 million. The Westlake, Ohio-based company reported earnings of $112 million, or $1.97 per share, compared to $118 million, or $2.05 per share, a year earlier [1].
CEO Sundaram Nagarajan attributed the positive results to increasing momentum in order entry and the mid-point of sales and earnings guidance. The company's medical and fluid solutions sales rose by 20% to $203 million, bolstered by a 30% acquisition impact from the buyout of Atrion. Advanced technology solutions sales also increased by 18% to $161 million, driven by broad-based demand in semiconductor and electronics end markets [1].
However, industrial precision solutions sales declined by 8% due to weak demand in polymer processing and industrial coatings product lines. Despite this setback, Nordson forecasted third-quarter sales in the range of $710 to $750 million and adjusted earnings between $2.55 and $2.75 per share, aligning with the full-year guidance set at the beginning of the fiscal year [1].
Analysts expect Nordson to post $713.9 million in sales and earnings per share of $2.58 for the third quarter. Retail sentiment on Stocktwits was neutral, while chatter was high, indicating a mixed market perception of the stock [1].
