Pentair has planned aggressive cost cutting to offset the impact of lower sales and has guided to savings of about $40M in 2015 and more than $100M in 2016. However, the analysts believe that positive catalysts are "in short supply" in the upcoming quarters. Pentair reported its 1Q15 EPS at $0.65, in-line with its preannouncement, but substantially below the analysts' previous estimate of $0.77. The miss was on account of a stronger dollar, slower-than-expected oil & gas, further slowing of global capex and de-stocking of customer inventory. Pentair's sales declined 10 percent y/y to $1.5B. Pentair has reduced its adjusted EPS guidance for FY15 from $4.10-$4.25 to $3.80, to reflect increased currency headwind and slower core growth. The company's adjusted EPS guidance for 2Q15 is $0.95-$0.96, significantly short of Longbow Research's prior estimate of $1.04.
