Yahoo Finance What's in Store for Array Technologies (ARRY) in Q1 Earnings?
Array Technologies, Inc. ARRY is slated to report first-quarter 2023 results on May 9, after market close.
In the last reported quarter, the company delivered an earnings surprise of 11.11%. It also delivered an average earnings surprise of 64.39% in the trailing four quarters.
Factors to Note
A solid increase in average selling price of its products, particularly DuraTrack, is likely to have boosted ARRY’s first-quarter revenues. Increased megawatts shipment (buoyed by growing solar demand across the United States), coupled with benefits from the acquisition of the STI Norland, is expected to have added an impetus to the top-line performance.
However, slower conversion of projects owing to low availability of modules might have an adverse impact on the company’s first-quarter results.
