Expectations

Wall Street Expectations

Bull Case

If Banco Macro beats EPS estimates and shows strong revenue growth, it could signal robust demand for its banking services, leading to a positive market reaction.

EPS

$2170.18

Revenue

$1193.6B

Total revenue reflects the bank's ability to generate income from its various services, which is vital for growth.

Expectations

Two Questions That Matter

The print will turn on these two things.

Will EPS exceed the consensus estimate of $2170.18?

A strong EPS performance could reinforce investor confidence and lead to a positive stock reaction.

What revenue figures will Banco Macro report, and how do they compare to the consensus of $1193.6B?

Revenue performance is crucial for understanding the bank's growth trajectory and operational health.

Edge

What the Street Is Missing

Why consensus could be wrong

The consensus may underestimate Banco Macro's ability to leverage its market position for growth, especially in a recovering economy.

Supporting Evidence

The bank has a strong history of beating EPS estimates, with a 75% success rate in the last eight quarters.

Options pricing suggests a significant expected move, indicating that traders are anticipating volatility that may not be fully accounted for in consensus estimates.

Key Risk

If the bank's revenue exceeds $1200B, it could challenge the current bearish sentiment.

Edge

Thesis-Break Levels

Pre-commit to what would confirm each case.

This quarter's performance hinges on Banco Macro's ability to manage costs and generate revenue amid changing economic conditions.

Bull Confirmed If

An EPS of $2200 or higher with revenue surpassing $1200B would confirm the bull case.

Bear Confirmed If

An EPS below $2000 or revenue below $1100B would confirm the bear case.
