Factors Likely to Shape Target Hospitality’s Q1 Results

The quarterly performance of the company is expected to have been hurt by reduced contributions from its Government and Hospitality & Facilities Services – South segments. The downtrend is likely to have been stimulated by lower Pecos Children’s Center (PCC) variable services revenues and no PCC Infrastructure Revenue Amortization.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the Government segment’s revenues is pegged at $23.7 million, which is significantly down from $67.6 million reported in the prior-year quarter. Revenues from the Hospitality & Facilities Services – South segment are pegged at $35.8 million, also down from $36.9 million reported in the prior-year quarter.

Moreover, the bottom line of the company is expected to have witnessed a downturn due to elevated selling, general and administrative expenses, accompanied by a detrimental impact from a declining top line. Although TH’s initiatives to improve its operational excellence are boding well, the ongoing macro risks, accompanied by an inflated cost structure, are expected to more than offset the prospects in the to-be-reported quarter.

The consensus mark for adjusted gross profit for the Government and the Hospitality & Facilities Services – South segments is pegged at $16.2 million and $11.5 million, indicating a year-over-year decline from $52.4 million and $12.8 million, respectively.
