CSG Total Revenue

Analysts covering the company have generally reconfirmed their estimates over the last 30 days, suggesting they anticipate the business to stay the course heading into earnings. CSG has only missed Wall Street’s revenue estimates once over the last two years, exceeding top-line expectations by 3.1% on average.

Looking at CSG’s peers in the data & business process services segment, some have already reported their Q1 results, giving us a hint as to what we can expect. CoStar delivered year-on-year revenue growth of 11.5%, meeting analysts’ expectations, and Dun & Bradstreet reported revenues up 2.7%, in line with consensus estimates. CoStar traded down 10.2% following the results while Dun & Bradstreet’s stock price was unchanged.

Today’s young investors won’t have read the timeless lessons in Gorilla Game: Picking Winners In High Technology because it was written more than 20 years ago when Microsoft and Apple were first establishing their supremacy. But if we apply the same principles, then enterprise software stocks leveraging their own generative AI capabilities may well be the Gorillas of the future. So, in that spirit, we are excited to present our Special Free Report on a profitable, fast-growing enterprise software stock that is already riding the automation wave and looking to catch the generative AI next.
