It should be noted from the chart above, however, that Coach has managed to surpass estimates in the last five consecutive quarters. So, a beat could be expected without being too far-fetched.

Healthy Results

CVS Health Corp CVS will also announce its second-quarter financial results on Tuesday morning. Opposite of its retail peer, Coach, CVS is expected to report one of – if not the – strongest quarters ever.

Management guided EPS of $1.19, while the Street anticipates earnings of $1.20 per share on revenue of $37.156 billion. The crowd is, nonetheless, the most bullish, projecting earnings of $1.22 per share on sales of $37.26 billion.

These estimates compare with earnings of $1.13 per share, revenue of $34.602 billion reported in the second quarter of 2014 and earnings of $1.14 per share on revenue of $36.332 billion retrieved last quarter.

The Not-So-Special K

Finally, there’s the Kellogg Company K, which is expected to deliver EPS between $0.91 (the Street’s consensus) and $0.93 (the crowd’s consensus) on revenue in the range of $3.45 billion (crowd) to $3.473 billion (Street).

As the chart above demonstrates, these results are far from special. In fact, they would imply a double-digit decline from the earnings of $1.02 per share (on revenue of $3.685 billion) reported a year ago and from the EPS of $0.98 (on sales of $3.556 billion) registered last quarter.
