Cummins Inc. is preparing for a challenging earnings report with expectations of a 12.1% year-over-year decline as it nears the release of its first-quarter 2022 results on May 3. Analysts forecast earnings of $3.55 per share, but the Zacks Consensus Estimate has been revised downward by 7 cents, while revenues are projected at $6.03 billion, marking a slight decline. Despite a recent tough quarter defined by weaker contributions across most segments, Cummins has historically beaten earnings estimates twice in the past year, although its stock has recently faced a 7.01% decline.
