Superior Industries International Inc. (NYSE:SUP) reported adjusted loss of 2 cents per share in third-quarter 2017. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings was 36 cents.

Third-quarter 2017 net income, including after-tax expense, came in at $5.1 million, or 20 cents per share.

Revenues were $331.4 million in the reported quarter, higher than $175.6 million in the year-ago quarter. Revenues also surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $316 million.

Wheel unit shipments were 5 million compared with the prior-year quarter of 2.9 million units. Value-added sales, i.e., net sales minus pass-through charges for aluminum, increased to $187.4 million compared with $98.8 million in the third quarter of 2016.

Gross profit rose to $23.9 million (7.2% of net sales) from $11 million (6.3%) in the year-ago quarter. The increase was due to the addition of the European operations.

Selling, general and administrative expenses jumped to $18.1 million in third-quarter 2017 from $5.7 million in the prior-year quarter.

Financial Details

In third-quarter 2017, Superior Industries’ net cash generated from operating activities was $27.2 million compared with $14.7 million in the year-ago period. The increase was primarily due to a rise in working capital and the addition of European operations, which were partly offset by expenses related to the acquisition.

Outlook

Superior Industries reaffirmed 2017 expectations for net sales, value-added sales, adjusted EBITDA, capital expenditures, and working capital.

The company expects net sales for 2017 to be in the range of $1.1-$1.11 billion. Superior Industries expects value-added sales in the band of $595-$615 million. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $135-$145 million. The company projects capital expenditure to be approximately $85 million. Unit shipments in 2017 are expected in the range of 16.9-17.2 million, unchanged from the prior guidance.

Zacks Rank & Key Picks

Currently, Superior Industries carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).

A few better-ranked automobile stocks worth considering are Allison Transmission Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:ALSN) , PACCAR Inc (NASDAQ:PCAR) and Cummins Inc. (NYSE:CMI) . While Allison Transmission Holdings sports a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), both PACCAR and Cummins carry a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank stocks here.

Allison Transmission Holdings has a long-term growth rate of 10%.

PACCAR has a long-term growth rate of 10%.

Cummins has an expected long-term earnings-per-share growth rate of 12.1%.

Will You Make a Fortune on the Shift to Electric Cars?

Here's another stock idea to consider. Much like petroleum 150 years ago, lithium power may soon shake the world, creating millionaires and reshaping geo-politics. Soon electric vehicles (EVs) may be cheaper than gas guzzlers. Some are already reaching 265 miles on a single charge.

With battery prices plummeting and charging stations set to multiply, one company stands out as the #1 stock to buy according to Zacks research.

It's not the one you think.
