The U.S. manufacturing sector is finally showing signs of recovery after months of struggle that saw demand slowing due to inflationary pressures and higher borrowing costs. However, with inflation finally showing signs of cooling, demand is rebounding.
The U.S. Census Bureau reported that orders for U.S. manufactured capital goods, made to last more than three years, rose 0.1% in May, higher than the consensus estimate of a decline of 0.1%.
Although the rise was lower than April&#39;s jump of 0.6%, the positive sign is that orders are growing steadily. Durable goods orders for items such as toasters to aircraft rose 0.1% in May after a downwardly revised 0.2% gain in April.
The report comes days after the Federal Reserve said that production at U.S. factories rose at a robust pace in May. According to the report, manufacturing output jumped 0.9% in May from a downwardly revised 0.4% decline in April. Year over year, production at U.S. factories increased 0.1% in May.
Inflation has been a major threat to the manufacturing sector. The consumer price index remained unchanged in May after increasing 0.3% in April. Year over year, CPI rose 3.3%, lower than the consensus estimate of a rise of 3.4%.
Although inflation remains higher than the Federal Reserve&#39;s 2% target, it has finally started easing after increasing in the first quarter.
Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said in his June post-FOMC meeting statement that the Fed sees only one rate cut this year, which is lower than the three projected in its March meeting.
However, even a minor 0.25% rate cut is being seen positively, especially considering that a large number of market participants had previously anticipated no rate cuts in 2024.
Moreover, the recent FOMC &quot;dot plot&quot; suggests a projected total reduction of 1% in interest rates by 2025. This outlook indicates that the Fed funds rate is expected to decrease to 4.1% by the end of 2025, which bodes well for the manufacturing sector and the broader economy.

5 Stocks to Buy on a Steady Rebound in Manufacturing Activity

Luxfer (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/lxfr#NYSE">LXFR</a>) could be a solid addition to your portfolio given its recent upgrade to a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy). This upgrade is essentially a reflection of an upward trend in earnings estimates -- one of the most powerful forces impacting stock prices.
A company&#39;s changing earnings picture is at the core of the Zacks rating. The system tracks the Zacks Consensus Estimate -- the consensus measure of EPS estimates from the sell-side analysts covering the stock -- for the current and following years.
The power of a changing earnings picture in determining near-term stock price movements makes the Zacks rating system highly useful for individual investors, since it can be difficult to make decisions based on rating upgrades by Wall Street analysts. These are mostly driven by subjective factors that are hard to see and measure in real time.
As such, the Zacks rating upgrade for Luxfer is essentially a positive comment on its earnings outlook that could have a favorable impact on its stock price.
Most Powerful Force Impacting Stock Prices
The change in a company&#39;s future earnings potential, as reflected in earnings estimate revisions, has proven to be strongly correlated with the near-term price movement of its stock. That&#39;s partly because of the influence of institutional investors that use earnings and earnings estimates for calculating the fair value of a company&#39;s shares. An increase or decrease in earnings estimates in their valuation models simply results in higher or lower fair value for a stock, and institutional investors typically buy or sell it. Their bulk investment action then leads to price movement for the stock.
Fundamentally speaking, rising earnings estimates and the consequent rating upgrade for Luxfer imply an improvement in the company&#39;s underlying business. Investors should show their appreciation for this improving business trend by pushing the stock higher.
Harnessing the Power of Earnings Estimate Revisions
Empirical research shows a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and near-term stock movements, so it could be truly rewarding if such revisions are tracked for making an investment decision. Here is where the tried-and-tested Zacks Rank stock-rating system plays an important role, as it effectively harnesses the power of earnings estimate revisions.
The Zacks Rank stock-rating system, which uses four factors related to earnings estimates to classify stocks into five groups, ranging from Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) to Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell), has an impressive externally-audited track record, with Zacks Rank #1 stocks generating an average annual return of +25% since 1988.
Earnings Estimate Revisions for Luxfer
This materials technology company specializing in aluminum, magnesium and zirconium is expected to earn $0.84 per share for the fiscal year ending December 2024, which represents a year-over-year change of 37.7%.
Analysts have been steadily raising their estimates for Luxfer. Over the past three months, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company has increased 16.7%.
Bottom Line
Unlike the overly optimistic Wall Street analysts whose rating systems tend to be weighted toward favorable recommendations, the Zacks rating system maintains an equal proportion of &#39;buy&#39; and &#39;sell&#39; ratings for its entire universe of more than 4000 stocks at any point in time. Irrespective of market conditions, only the top 5% of the Zacks-covered stocks get a &#39;Strong Buy&#39; rating and the next 15% get a &#39;Buy&#39; rating. So, the placement of a stock in the top 20% of the Zacks-covered stocks indicates its superior earnings estimate revision feature, making it a solid candidate for producing market-beating returns in the near term.
The upgrade of Luxfer to a Zacks Rank #1 positions it in the top 5% of the Zacks-covered stocks in terms of estimate revisions, implying that the stock might move higher in the near term.

Luxfer Upgraded to Strong Buy: What Does It Mean for the Stock?

Zebra Technologies Corporation (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/zbra#NASDAQ">ZBRA</a>) recently announced the pricing of its private offering of senior notes worth $500 million in aggregate principal amount. The offering is anticipated to close on May 28, 2024, conditional on certain customary closing conditions. 
The company&#39;s shares gained 1.6% yesterday, thereby ending the trading session at $326.98.
<h3>Inside the Headlines</h3>
The senior notes carry an interest rate of 6.500% and are scheduled to mature on Jun 1, 2032. Notably, the senior notes are Zebra Technologies&#39; unsecured obligations and will be guaranteed by certain of its domestic subsidiaries. The notes will be offered only to qualified institutional buyers per Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933 and to non-U.S. investors conforming to Regulation S. 
Zebra Technologies expects to use the net proceeds from this offering to repay all of its outstanding debt under the revolving credit facility and to meet general corporate purposes. Exiting the first quarter, the company&#39;s outstanding debt under its revolving credit facility totaled $172 million. 
We believe that the offering of senior notes will increase ZBRA&#39;s debts and, in turn, might inflate its financial obligations and hurt profitability. However, prepaying part of certain indebtedness will offer some relief. Exiting the first quarter, the company&#39;s long-term debt remained high at $1.8 billion. At the end of the first quarter, its cash and cash equivalents were $127 million, less than the current portion of long-term debt of $272 million.
<h3>Zacks Rank, Price Performance and Earnings Trend</h3>
ZBRA, with a $16.8 billion market capitalization, currently sports a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy). It stands to benefit from strong demand for services and software, and RFID (radio frequency identification) products. Also, its cost-management actions are enabling it to cut down operating expenses and improve margin performance.

Its shares have gained 18.9% compared with the industry&#39;s 11.6% growth in the past three months. 
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2024 earnings has increased 9.3% to $12.11 in the past 60 days.

It has a market capitalization of $6.6 billion. Over the past three months, it has gained 19.7% compared with the industry&#39;s 1.5% growth. FLS currently carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). 
Let&#39;s delve into the factors that have been aiding the firm for a while now. 
Solid Booking Level: The company has been benefiting from robust bookings driven by strong maintenance, repair, operations and aftermarket activity. Solid booking levels supported by strong demand for bill and gas, and chemicals augur well for the company. FLS&#39; Diversify, Decarbonize and Digitize strategy has also been supporting its growth. Notably, its first-quarter 2024 bookings of $1.04 billion marked the ninth consecutive quarter of more than $1 billion bookings. 
Business Strength: Solid momentum in the original equipment and aftermarket businesses are supporting both the Flowserve Pump Division (revenues increased 9.9% year over year in the first quarter) and Flow Control Division (revenues grew 13.8% year over year in the first quarter) segments. For 2024, the company projects revenues to grow in the range of 4-6% from the year-ago levels. It anticipates adjusted earnings per share between $2.50 and $2.70. 
Shareholder-Friendly Policies: Management remains focused on rewarding its shareholders through dividend payouts.&nbsp;The company paid dividends of $105 million in 2023.&nbsp; In the first quarter, it used $27.7 million for distributing dividends. 
Solid Liquidity Position: In the first three months of 2024, the company generated net cash of $62.3 million from operating activities, up from $26.6 million in the year-ago period. Exiting the first quarter, its cash and cash equivalents were $532 million, much higher than the current maturities of $66.4 million. 
However, Flowserve has been grappling with escalating costs and expenses over time. In 2023, its cost of sales jumped 16.1% year over year due to higher input costs. Also, the metric jumped 9.5% year over year in the first quarter of 2024 due to higher input costs.

Luxfer Gas Cylinders, a division of Luxfer Holdings PLC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LXFR#NYSE">LXFR</a>), a global industrial company innovating niche applications in materials engineering, today announced it has been awarded a clean technology grant from Alberta Innovates Hydrogen Centre of Excellence to support the development of a new Type 4 700 bar hydrogen cylinder.
Luxfer will use the Alberta Innovates grant to develop a polymer-lined high pressure hydrogen cylinder that reduces the number of components and amount of time to manufacture while also having the capability of storing gaseous pressure up to 700 bar (10,000 psi).

Although production at factories fell 0.7% year over year, the month-over-month gain indicates a steady recovery.
Capacity utilization for the industrial sector remained unchanged at 78.3% in February. However, capacity utilization for manufacturing jumped 0.6% in February.
The manufacturing sector, which accounts for 10.3% of the economy, suffered throughout 2023 as demand shrank amid growing price pressures. The Federal Reserve adopted a strict monetary tightening policy, increasing interest rates by 525 basis points, to curb multi-decade high inflation.
The Federal Reserve&#39;s stance saw inflation declining sharply over the past year. This saw demand rebounding once again, driving production at U.S. factories.
Investors are now expecting multiple rate cuts this year, which is likely to start at the end of the first half. Lower interest rates will ease borrowing costs, which is likely to further boost the manufacturing sector.

A Preview Of Luxfer Holdings's Earnings

Wednesday marks the last chance for investors to receive the next dividend payout from Luxfer Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LXFR#NYSE">LXFR</a>). 
<h3>What's Happening</h3>
The company announced on Tuesday that it would pay shareholders a quarterly dividend of 13 cents per share.
