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.

Toshiba Releases Lens-Reduction Type CCD Linear Image Sensor with Low Random Noise That Helps Improve Image Quality in Devices Such as A3 Multifunction Printers
KAWASAKI, Japan--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation ("Toshiba") has launched a lens-reduction type [1] CCD [2] linear image sensor ' TCD2728DG ' for A3 multifunction printers. Shipments start today. The sensor has 7,500 image sensing elements (pixels) [3] and supports A3 multifunction printers. It is also more effective at reducing random noise (NDσ) [4] than Toshiba's current TCD2726DG. Business offices are seeing a growing need for high-speed, high-resolution copying and scanning of large volumes of different kinds of documents. This is particularly true for A3 multifunction printers, where improving image quality has become an important issue, and NDσ in the signal has to be suppressed to enhance image quality. TCD2728DG has lower output amplifier gain [5] than Toshiba's current product, TCD2726DG, and reduces NDσ by approximately 40% [6]. This improvement enhances image quality in multifunction printers. The new CCD linear sensor achieves a data rate of 100 MHz (50 MHz × 2 channels), enabling high-speed processing of large volumes of images. This makes it well-suited for line scan cameras used in inspection systems that require real-time decision-making. Toshiba will continue to expand its product lineup to support scanning by multifunction printers and the sensing applications of inspection devices, and to meet growing demand for high-speed, high-resolution imaging and sensing technologies. Notes: [1] The method of reducing an image with optical lenses and projecting it onto a CCD or CMOS image sensor. [2] CCD: Charge Coupled Device [3] Number of pixels required to scan the short side (297 mm) of A3 size at a resolution of 600 dpi.
