Q1 Estimates

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for O-I Glass’ first-quarter earnings per share is pegged at 82 cents, suggesting an increase of 46.4% from the prior-year quarter’s reported level.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for total sales is pinned at $1.78 billion, indicating a 5.3% decline from the year-ago quarter’s reported number.

Factors at Play

O-I Glass is likely to have gained from the growing demand for glass on consumer preference for healthy, premium and sustainable products for food and beverage. The first-quarter 2023 results are also expected to reflect gains from the focus on performance improvement, margin expansion initiatives and innovation.

In the first quarter, the effects of lower volume are likely to have been offset by strong net price realization and the favorable impacts of inventory revaluation.
