2021 Guidance

PerkinElmer has provided guidance for third-quarter 2021 and raised full-year 2021 outlook.

For third-quarter 2021, the company projects adjusted EPS of $1.62. The Zacks Consensus Estimate is pegged at $1.70 per share. For the same period, revenues are anticipated to be around $1 billion. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the same stands at $951.6 million.

For 2021, the company expects adjusted EPS to be $9.88 (up from the previous estimate of at least $9.40). The Zacks Consensus Estimate is pegged at $9.50 per share.
Revenues are anticipated to be $4.57 billion (up from the prior estimate of at least $4.37 billion). The consensus mark stands at $4.37 billion.

Conclusion

PerkinElmer exited the second quarter on a strong note, wherein both earnings and revenues beat their respective consensus mark. The company witnessed robust core segmental performance in the quarter under review. Expansion in both gross and operating margins instills optimism.

Interestingly, the company inked a deal to acquire BioLegend — a leading manufacturer of innovative antibodies and research agents — for an amount of $5.25 billion. Per management, the company exhibited encouraging performance throughout the first half of 2021 and is well-positioned to execute on both its short and long-term goals.

However, PerkinElmer continues to make acquisitions, which increases integration risks.

Currently, PerkinElmer carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).
