Sherbetchyan observed:

“Group (III; $6.50 PT) reports 4Q17 (Dec) results after the market close on and will host its quarterly earnings conference call the following morning at 9:00AM ET (dial-in: conference ID: 9600997). We forecast revenues/ adjusted EBITDA/adjusted EPS of $67.0M/$5.1M/$0.04. The consensus calls for $67.8M/$6.5M/ $0.07, respectively. We expect results to be at least in line with our expectations as our model errs on the side of conservatism due to what is typically a seasonally soft 1Q (client demand builds-up from 1Q onwards). We anticipate III to reiterate its FY18 revenue/adjusted EBITDA outlook, which includes revenues of $285M-$292M and adjusted EBITDA of $35M-$37M. Our FY18 model stands at the low end of management’s outlook for both revenues and adj.”
