A few days ago, the company Quartalszahlen presented its results. The share price then came under pressure. Could this be an opportunity, or is there really reason to doubt?
At USD 1.55 per share, earnings were well above expectations of USD 1.45. With sales of USD 3.72 billion, the company also exceeded analysts' estimates of USD 3.62 billion.
Sales increased by 5.4 % over the year, while profits were virtually unchanged.
However, individual quarters are not meaningful in this business, as the delivery of a few machines shortly before or after the end of a quarter has a significant impact on earnings.
The order backlog remains high and totals USD 14.75 billion.
MV-75: Orders until 2050
The forecast for the current financial year has been confirmed. Textron continues to forecast earnings of USD 6.00 - 6.20 per share, which would correspond to a jump in earnings of 10 - 13%.
Textron therefore has a forward P/E of 12.8, compared with an average P/E of 17.9 over many years.
However, the forecast for operating cash flow was raised from USD 0.8 - 0.9 billion to USD 0.9 - 1.0 billion.
In addition, the U.S. Army has decided to accelerate the MV-75 program, which should boost sales and profits as early as next year. In addition, the U.S. Army wants to increase initial production from 4 to 8 units per year.
The MV-75 is intended to replace the entire Black Hawk fleet. The U.S. Army currently has over 2,000 Black Hawk transport helicopters in service. The program guarantees Textron orders until at least 2050.
Textron has also received two major orders from the US Navy worth USD 654 million

The share nevertheless came under pressure after the quarterly figures and has returned below the medium-term Abwärtstrend has returned.
An interesting opportunity could arise for anti-cyclical investors. The next relevant Unterstützungen are USD 78, 75 and 72 - 73.
If, on the other hand, it manages to return above USD 80, the situation will ease again. Above USD 82.50 and USD 85 there would be procyclical Kaufsignalen.
