NEGATIVE IMPACT
CNH Industrial lowers its 2024 EPS forecast to $1.45-$1.55, indicating a potential decrease in profitability. Agriculture sales and margin forecasts are revised downwards, while construction remains stable.
The downward revision in CNH Industrial's EPS forecast suggests a less optimistic outlook on its financial performance, particularly in the agriculture segment. This revision, especially when it is below the consensus, typically leads to negative investor sentiment in the short term. The unchanged outlook for the construction segment might provide some stability, but the overall negative adjustment in earnings guidance is likely to weigh on the stock price.
