RMR Group (RMR) Matches Q1 Earnings Estimates
Zacks
RMR Group (RMR) came out with quarterly earnings of $0.35 per share, in line with the Zacks Consensus Estimate. This compares to earnings of $0.49 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.
A quarter ago, it was expected that this real estate management services provider would post earnings of $0.38 per share when it actually produced earnings of $0.34, delivering a surprise of -10.53%.
Over the last four quarters, the company has not been able to surpass consensus EPS estimates.
RMR Group, which belongs to the Zacks Real Estate - Operations industry, posted revenues of $219.48 million for the quarter ended December 2024, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 16.71%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $261.67 million. The company has not been able to beat consensus revenue estimates over the last four quarters.
The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.
RMR Group shares have lost about 8% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 2.7%.
What's Next for RMR Group?
While RMR Group has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?
There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.
Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.
