NEGATIVE IMPACT
IFF's Q4 earnings missed EPS estimates but slightly beat sales forecasts, with both earnings and sales down from the previous year.
Missing the EPS estimate and reporting a year-over-year decrease in both earnings and sales are negative indicators that could lead to a short-term negative impact on IFF's stock price. The slight beat on sales estimates might not be enough to counteract the negative sentiment from the earnings miss and year-over-year declines.
