ZACKS· 2025-07-24 15:09
Core Viewpoint - Wall Street anticipates a year-over-year decline in earnings for Bio-Rad Laboratories due to lower revenues, with actual results being crucial for stock price movement [1][2].

Earnings Surprise Prediction - The Zacks Earnings ESP model shows a positive Earnings ESP of +0.26% for Bio-Rad, suggesting recent bullish sentiment among analysts, although the stock holds a Zacks Rank of 4, complicating predictions of an earnings beat [12].
