As a leader in the Zacks Transportation - Truck industry, KNX has consistently demonstrated strong financial performance. The company is set to release its quarterly earnings on July 23, 2025, with Wall Street analysts estimating an earnings per share (EPS) of $0.34 and projected revenues of $1.87 billion.
The anticipated EPS of $0.34 for the quarter ending June 2025 represents a significant year-over-year increase of 41.7%, as highlighted by Zacks Investment Research. This growth is driven by higher revenues, which are expected to reach $1.87 billion, reflecting a modest 1.2% increase compared to the same quarter last year. Despite a recent 5.1% downward revision in the consensus EPS estimate, KNX's strong track record of surpassing earnings expectations suggests potential for another earnings beat.
