FactSet to Report Q4 Earnings: What's in Store for the Stock?

FactSet Research Systems Inc. FDS is set to report fourth-quarter fiscal 2025 results on Sept. 18, before market open.

FDS surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in the trailing four quarters, delivering an average surprise of 1.7%.

FactSet’s Q4 Expectations

The consensus estimate for FactSet’s fiscal fourth-quarter revenues is set at $592.6 million, indicating 5.6% growth from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure.

We expect revenues from the Americas to be $381.2 million, suggesting 5.2% year-over-year growth. Banking and asset manager retention, accompanied by robust demand in wealth, hedge funds, and corporates, is likely to have boosted this region’s revenues.

EMEA revenues are expected to increase 3.1% from the same quarter last year to $147.5 million. This modest growth is likely to have been driven by retention in banking and wealth.

Revenues from the Asia Pacific are expected to be $60.2 million, indicating a 6.4% hike on a year-over-year basis. Revenues in this segment are expected to have been enhanced by higher retention in the banking sector.

The consensus mark for earnings is kept at $4.15 per share, hinting at an 11% jump on a year-over-year basis.
