• Positive Sentiment: The firm also lifted its FY2027 EPS forecast to $7.82 from $6.92. Q1 2027 rose to $2.13 from $1.68, Q2 2027 to $2.47 from $1.83, and Q3 2027 to $1.81 from $1.76. FY2027 earnings are now broadly in line with the $7.83 consensus estimate.
• Positive Sentiment: Zacks increased its Q2 2028 EPS estimate to $2.07 from $1.87, indicating that portions of the longer-term outlook also improved.
• Neutral Sentiment: The revisions were issued as a series of estimate updates rather than a change in the company’s operating guidance or analyst rating. Investors should therefore view them as sentiment-supportive but not as confirmation of actual results.
