The first-quarter earnings season is wrapping up, with blended earnings (actual results and the consensus for those still to report) showing a 0.6% year-over-year decline, according to Refinitiv. That is considerably better than the 5.0% decline expected at the start of the earnings period, though still not enough to avoid a technical earnings recession following 4Q’s 3.4% decline. Propelling the 1Q outperformance was a 74% beat rate (versus the long-term average of 62%), with strong gains in Consumer Discretionary (+55%) and Industrials (+26%), but drags from Basic Materials and Utilities (both -22%). Our analysts are always on the lookout for companies that boost their outlooks during earnings season.

Here is an initial list of BUY-rated companies in Argus Coverage for which management has raised guidance or increased its outlook during the 1Q23 EPS reporting season.
