Trex's (NYSE:TREX) Q2 Sales Top Estimates
Composite decking and railing products manufacturer Trex Company (NYSE:TREX) beat Wall Street's revenue expectations in Q2 CY2025, with sales up 3% year on year to $387.8 million. On the other hand, next quarter's revenue guidance of $300 million was less impressive, coming in 1% below analysts' estimates. Its non-GAAP profit of $0.73 per share was 2.8% above analysts' consensus estimates. Is now the time to buy Trex? Find out in our full research report. Trex (TREX) Q2 CY2025 Highlights: Revenue: $387.8 million vs analyst estimates of $377.1 million (3% year-on-year growth, 2.8% beat) Adjusted EPS: $0.73 vs analyst estimates of $0.71 (2.8% beat) Adjusted EBITDA: $122 million vs analyst estimates of $117.9 million (31.5% margin, 3.5% beat) Revenue Guidance for Q3 CY2025 is $300 million at the midpoint, below analyst estimates of $303.1 million Operating Margin: 26.4%, down from 31.1% in the same quarter last year Free Cash Flow Margin: 52.3%, up from 42% in the same quarter last year Market Capitalization: $6.8 billion 'Our prominent position in both the pro channel and home centers enabled Trex to deliver another quarter of sales performance that exceeded expectations,' said Bryan Fairbanks, President and CEO. Company Overview Addressing the demand for aesthetically-pleasing and unique outdoor living spaces, Trex Company (NYSE:TREX) makes wood-alternative decking, railing, and patio furniture. Revenue Growth Examining a company's long-term performance can provide clues about its quality. Any business can put up a good quarter or two, but the best consistently grow over the long haul. Thankfully, Trex's 7.7% annualized revenue growth over the last five years was decent. Its growth was slightly above the average industrials company and shows its offerings resonate with customers. Long-term growth is the most important, but within industrials, a half-decade historical view may miss new industry trends or demand cycles. Trex's annualized revenue growth of 7.6% over the last two years aligns with its five-year trend, suggesting its demand was stable. This quarter, Trex reported modest year-on-year revenue growth of 3% but beat Wall Street's estimates by 2.8%. Company management is currently guiding for a 28.4% year-on-year increase in sales next quarter. Looking further ahead, sell-side analysts expect revenue to grow 13% over the next 12 months, an improvement versus the last two years. This projection is noteworthy and suggests its newer products and services will catalyze better top-line performance. Software is eating the world and there is virtually no industry left that has been untouched by it. That drives increasing demand for tools helping software developers do their jobs, whether it be monitoring critical cloud infrastructure, integrating audio and video functionality, or ensuring smooth content streaming.

Operating Margin Operating margin is one of the best measures of profitability because it tells us how much money a company takes home after procuring and manufacturing its products, marketing and selling those products, and most importantly, keeping them relevant through research and development. Trex has been a well-oiled machine over the last five years. It demonstrated elite profitability for an industrials business, boasting an average operating margin of 24.5%. This result isn't surprising as its high gross margin gives it a favorable starting point. Looking at the trend in its profitability, Trex's operating margin decreased by 3.3 percentage points over the last five years. This raises questions about the company's expense base because its revenue growth should have given it leverage on its fixed costs, resulting in better economies of scale and profitability. In Q2, Trex generated an operating margin profit margin of 26.4%, down 4.6 percentage points year on year. Since Trex's operating margin decreased more than its gross margin, we can assume it was less efficient because expenses such as marketing, R&D, and administrative overhead increased. Earnings Per Share Revenue trends explain a company's historical growth, but the long-term change in earnings per share (EPS) points to the profitability of that growth – for example, a company could inflate its sales through excessive spending on advertising and promotions. Trex's EPS grew at an unimpressive 4.5% compounded annual growth rate over the last five years, lower than its 7.7% annualized revenue growth. This tells us the company became less profitable on a per-share basis as it expanded due to non-fundamental factors such as interest expenses and taxes. We can take a deeper look into Trex's earnings to better understand the drivers of its performance. As we mentioned earlier, Trex's operating margin declined by 3.3 percentage points over the last five years. This was the most relevant factor (aside from the revenue impact) behind its lower earnings; interest expenses and taxes can also affect EPS but don't tell us as much about a company's fundamentals. Like with revenue, we analyze EPS over a shorter period to see if we are missing a change in the business. For Trex, its two-year annual EPS growth of 10.7% was higher than its five-year trend. This acceleration made it one of the faster-growing industrials companies in recent history. In Q2, Trex reported adjusted EPS at $0.73, down from $0.80 in the same quarter last year. Despite falling year on year, this print beat analysts' estimates by 2.8%. Over the next 12 months, Wall Street expects Trex's full-year EPS of $1.79 to grow 34.1%. Key Takeaways from Trex's Q2 Results We enjoyed seeing Trex beat analysts' revenue expectations this quarter. We were also happy its EBITDA outperformed Wall Street's estimates. On the other hand, its revenue guidance for next quarter slightly missed. Overall, this print was mixed. The stock remained flat at $64.50 immediately following the results. Sure, Trex had a solid quarter, but if we look at the bigger picture, is this stock a buy? The latest quarter does matter, but not nearly as much as longer-term fundamentals and valuation, when deciding if the stock is a buy. We cover that in our actionable full research report which you can read here, it's free.

Dollar weakens as rate cut odds rise, tariff uncertainties linger
By Ankur Banerjee and Gregor Stuart Hunter SINGAPORE (Reuters) -The U.S. dollar wavered on Tuesday as the rising odds of Federal Reserve rate cuts weighed on sentiment, while investors assessed the broader economic impact of U.S. tariffs unleashed last week. The dollar remained under pressure following Friday's U.S. jobs report that showed cracks in the labour market, prompting traders to swiftly price in rate cuts next month. U.S. President Donald Trump's firing of a top statistics official and the resignation of Federal Reserve Governor Adriana Kugler also exacerbated market unease, leading to a sharp dive in the dollar on Friday. The U.S. currency found its footing on Monday but was weaker in early trading on Tuesday. The euro last bought $1.1579 while sterling stood at $1.3298. The dollar index, which measures the U.S. currency against six other units, was at 98.688 after touching a one-week low earlier in the session. Traders are now pricing in a 94.4% chance of the Fed cutting rates in its next meeting in September, compared to 63% a week earlier, CME FedWatch tool showed. Goldman Sachs expects the Fed to deliver three consecutive 25 basis point cuts starting in September, with a 50 basis point move possible if the unemployment rate climbs further in the next report. San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank President Mary Daly said on Monday that given mounting evidence that the U.S. jobs market is softening and no signs of persistent tariff-driven inflation, the time is nearing for rate cuts. "I was willing to wait another cycle, but I can't wait forever," Daly said. Meanwhile, the focus remains on tariff uncertainties after the latest duties imposed on scores of countries last week by Trump, stoked worries about the health of the global economy. The Japanese yen firmed slightly to 146.95 per dollar after minutes of its June policy meeting showed a few Bank of Japan board members said the central bank would consider resuming interest rate increases if trade frictions de-escalate. The Swiss franc was steady at 0.8081 per dollar after dropping 0.5% in the previous session as Switzerland geared up to make a "more attractive offer" in trade talks with Washington to avert a 39% U.S. import tariff on Swiss goods that threatens to hammer its export-driven economy. The long-term impact of the tariffs though remains uncertain, with traders bracing for volatility. "This is going to be like the pandemic, we all expect to see the transitory impact on supply chains to happen very quickly," said Rodrigo Catril, currency strategist at National Australia Bank in Sydney. "It'll probably take six months to a year to see exactly where we land and who's going to be winners and losers from all this." In other currencies, the Australian dollar was 0.11% higher at $0.64736, while the New Zealand dollar rose 0.11% to $0.5914. "We're still of a view that the big dollar is heading down," Catril said, referring to the U.S. dollar. "While global growth means pro-growth currencies like Asian currencies and the AUD should struggle, we've other structural dynamics in the USD, where policies are dollar-negative."
