Pearson And ServiceNow Partner In Multi-Year Deal To Enhance Workforce Development And Employee Experiences With AI

Pearson (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/pso#NYSE">PSO</a>) appears an attractive pick, as it has been recently upgraded to a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). This upgrade primarily reflects an upward trend in earnings estimates, which is one of the most powerful forces impacting stock prices.
The sole determinant of the Zacks rating is a company&#39;s changing earnings picture. The Zacks Consensus Estimate -- the consensus of EPS estimates from the sell-side analysts covering the stock -- for the current and following years is tracked by the system.
Individual investors often find it hard to make decisions based on rating upgrades by Wall Street analysts, since these are mostly driven by subjective factors that are hard to see and measure in real time. In these situations, the Zacks rating system comes in handy because of the power of a changing earnings picture in determining near-term stock price movements.
As such, the Zacks rating upgrade for Pearson is essentially a positive comment on its earnings outlook that could have a favorable impact on its stock price.
<h2>Most Powerful Force Impacting Stock Prices</h2>
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 transaction of large amounts of shares then leads to price movement for the stock.
For Pearson, rising earnings estimates and the consequent rating upgrade fundamentally mean an improvement in the company&#39;s underlying business. And investors&#39; appreciation of this improving business trend should push the stock higher.
<h2>Harnessing the Power of Earnings Estimate Revisions</h2>
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.
<h2>Earnings Estimate Revisions for Pearson</h2>
This education services company and publisher is expected to earn $0.80 per share for the fiscal year ending December 2024, which represents a year-over-year change of 9.6%.
Analysts have been steadily raising their estimates for Pearson. Over the past three months, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company has increased 1.9%.
<h2>Bottom Line</h2>
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 Pearson to a Zacks Rank #2 positions it in the top 20% of the Zacks-covered stocks in terms of estimate revisions, implying that the stock might move higher in the near term.

<li>Education group&nbsp;Pearson PLC&nbsp;(NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/pso#NYSE">PSO</a>) agreed to&nbsp;<a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://plc.pearson.com/en-GB/investors/performance/regulatory-news" style="background-image:initial; background-position:initial; background-size:initial; background-repeat:initial; background-attachment:initial; background-origin:initial; background-clip:initial; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; color:#4a6ee0" target="_blank">sell&nbsp;</a>Pearson Online Learning Services (POLS) to&nbsp;Regent, a private equity group, for a deferred sum.</li>
<li>The business sale concludes the strategic review revealed in August 2022 and marks further progress in reshaping Pearson&#39;s portfolio centered around lifelong learning.</li>
<li>Regent will pay Pearson 27.5% of POLS&#39; positive Adjusted EBITDA each year for six years.</li>
<li>The deal includes a further contingent payment equal to 27.5% of the proceeds received by Regent in relation to any monetization event of POLS following the completion of the transaction.</li>
<li>The proceeds of this transaction will be used for general corporate purposes within Pearson&#39;s capital allocation framework.</li>
<li>The POLS business had gross assets of &pound;113 million and net assets of &pound;78 million as of Dec. 31, 2022. The business, which excludes Pearson&#39;s contract with ASU, generated &pound;155 million of revenue and &pound;26 million of adjusted operating losses in 2022, with around &pound;5 million of stranded costs, which have now been eliminated.</li>
<li>The company noted the impact of the sale on Pearson&#39;s 2023 adjusted operating profit will be dependent upon the timing of transaction completion but is likely to be immaterial.</li>
<li>Price Action: PSO shares are trading lower by 0.10% at $10.30 in premarket on the last check Tuesday.</li>
