Results date sets the next marker

Second-quarter growth raised the bar

Belden's fiscal second-quarter revenue reached USD 750.16 million, up 12.00 percent from the year-earlier quarter, while GAAP earnings per share rose 14.00 percent to USD 1.74, according to Business Wire. The company also reported record orders of USD 836.00 million for the quarter, up 19.00 percent year over year. The revenue and order figures make the October reporting date more important than a single-session quote.

Price position and valuation

The NYSE quote puts Belden near the lower end of its USD 98.00 to USD 159.99 52-week range. Its USD 3.97 billion market capitalization and P/E ratio of 16.49 provide the valuation frame for the USD 150.00 analyst target. The target is a firm estimate from Citi, not a forecast from this article.
