Veralto (NYSE: VLTO) raised its annual adjusted profit forecast on Wednesday, for the third time this year, as the water treatment solutions provider expects sustained demand for its chemical treatment services and UV-filtration systems.
Veralto, which was spun off from the life sciences firm Danaher in September last year, provides quality control services to companies in the packaging goods sector and makes products that can measure water quality.
The company’s water quality segment has seen sustained demand from both municipalities and industrial customers. Meanwhile, its product quality and innovation segment has benefited from a surge in consumer goods spending, following a post-pandemic slowdown.
Veralto (NYSE: VLTO) now sees annual adjusted profit to range between $3.44 to $3.48 per share, up from its prior estimated range of $3.37 to $3.45 per share.
Third-quarter adjusted profit for the company came in at 89 cents per share, surpassing analysts’ average estimate of 85 cents per share, according to data compiled by LSEG.
Net sales for the third quarter, which ended September 27, rose 4.7% to $1.31 million, compared with estimates of $1.30 billion.
