Track market-moving stories before they get noisy

Taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals for new and old investors, and Zacks Premium offers many different ways to do both.

The research service features daily updates of the Zacks Rank and Zacks Industry Rank, full access to the Zacks #1 Rank List, Equity Research reports, and Premium stock screens, all of which will help you become a smarter, more confident investor.

It also includes access to the Zacks Style Scores.

What are the Zacks Style Scores? Developed alongside the Zacks Rank, the Zacks Style Scores are a group of complementary indicators that help investors pick stocks with the best chances of beating the market over the next 30 days.

Based on their value, growth, and momentum characteristics, each stock is assigned a rating of A, B, C, D, or F. The better the score, the better chance the stock will outperform; an A is better than a B, a B is better than a C, and so on.

The Style Scores are broken down into four categories:

Value ScoreFinding good stocks at good prices, and discovering which companies are trading under their true value, are what value investors like to focus on. So, the Value Style Score takes into account ratios like P/E, PEG, Price/Sales, Price/Cash Flow, and a host of other multiples to highlight the most attractive and discounted stocks.

Growth ScoreWhile good value is important, growth investors are more focused on a company's financial strength and health, and its future outlook. The Growth Style Score takes projected and historic earnings, sales, and cash flow into account to uncover stocks that will see long-term, sustainable growth.

Momentum ScoreMomentum trading is all about taking advantage of upward or downward trends in a stock's price or earnings outlook, and these investors live by the saying "the trend is your friend." The Momentum Style Score can pinpoint good times to build a position in a stock, using factors like one-week price change and the monthly percentage change in earnings estimates.

VGM ScoreWhat if you like to use all three types of investing? The VGM Score is a combination of all Style Scores, making it one of the most comprehensive indicators to use with the Zacks Rank. It rates each stock on their combined weighted styles, which helps narrow down the companies with the most attractive value, best growth forecast, and most promising momentum.

How Style Scores Work with the Zacks Rank The Zacks Rank, which is a proprietary stock-rating model, employs earnings estimate revisions, or changes to a company's earnings expectations, to make building a winning portfolio easier.

Investors can count on the Zacks Rank's success, with #1 (Strong Buy) stocks producing an unmatched +23.94% average annual return since 1988, more than double the S&P 500's performance. But the model rates a large number of stocks, and there are over 200 companies with a Strong Buy rank, plus another 600 with a #2 (Buy) rank, on any given day.

This totals more than 800 top-rated stocks, and it can be overwhelming to try and pick the best stocks for you and your portfolio.

That's where the Style Scores come in.

To maximize your returns, you want to buy stocks with the highest probability of success. This means picking stocks with a Zacks Rank #1 or #2 that also have Style Scores of A or B. If you find yourself looking at stocks with a #3 (Hold) rank, make sure they have Scores of A or B as well to ensure as much upside potential as possible.

Since the Scores were created to work together with the Zacks Rank, the direction of a stock's earnings estimate revisions should be a key factor when choosing which stocks to buy.

Here's an example: a stock with a #4 (Sell) or #5 (Strong Sell) rating, even one with Style Scores of A and B, still has a downward-trending earnings outlook, and a bigger chance its share price will decrease too.

Thus, the more stocks you own with a #1 or #2 Rank and Scores of A or B, the better.

TEL is a #2 (Buy) on the Zacks Rank, with a VGM Score of A.

Momentum investors should take note of this Computer and Technology stock. TEL has a Momentum Style Score of A, and shares are up 0.9% over the past four weeks.

One analyst revised their earnings estimate upwards in the last 60 days for fiscal 2026. The Zacks Consensus Estimate has increased $0.00 to $11.31 per share. TEL boasts an average earnings surprise of +4.5%.

With a solid Zacks Rank and top-tier Momentum and VGM Style Scores, TEL should be on investors' short list.

3 Stocks Quietly Leveraging AI While Everyone Chases NVIDIATE Connectivity NYSE: TEL reported record adjusted earnings per share and record orders in its fiscal 2026 third quarter, with executives pointing to accelerating demand tied to artificial intelligence infrastructure, power investment, electrification and automation.

Chief Executive Officer Terrence Curtin said the company’s “strategic positioning around the accelerating data and power trend continues to drive broad-based outperformance,” adding that TE is participating in what he described as one of the largest global technology and infrastructure investment cycles. The company now expects full-year fiscal 2026 sales to grow approximately 15%, representing more than $2.5 billion of incremental revenue, while adjusted earnings per share are expected to rise 23% year over year.

Insiders Sold Big at These 3 Stocks—Should You Worry?For the third quarter, TE Connectivity reported sales of $5.2 billion, up 14% on a reported basis and 12% organically from the prior year. Orders rose 27% year over year to a record $5.7 billion and increased 7% sequentially. The company said it ran a book-to-bill ratio of 1.1 both in the quarter and year to date.

Adjusted earnings per share increased 22% year over year to a record $2.94. Adjusted operating margin expanded 90 basis points to 21.9%. GAAP operating income was $981 million, while GAAP EPS was $2.55, including restructuring, acquisition and other charges as well as amortization expense.

AI and Power Demand Drive Industrial Segment Growth This mid-cap tech stock just jumped 30%...and is still cheapTE’s Industrial Solutions segment posted third-quarter sales growth of 22% on a reported basis and 21% organically. Curtin said the segment benefited from growth across the portfolio, led by more than 30% organic growth in both the Digital Data Networks, or DDN, business and the energy business.

In DDN, sales increased 34% year over year and were up $100 million sequentially. Curtin said the company continues to see demand tied to AI architectures, including increasing deployment of CPUs and networking that expands the market for high-speed copper connectivity. He also said TE sees longer-term opportunities in optical connectivity following its RAM Photonics acquisition, though meaningful revenue from fiber-attached unit technology is not expected until 2028 and beyond.

Responding to analyst questions about copper versus optical connectivity in AI infrastructure, Curtin said TE views the opportunity as “copper and optical,” rather than one replacing the other. He said copper is expected to remain important within racks and scale-up architectures, while optical is already prevalent in scale-out applications. He also noted that rising power requirements in AI systems are creating additional opportunities for TE’s power connectivity products.

Energy sales grew 33% organically in the quarter. Curtin said the business is benefiting from utility grid hardening, aging infrastructure replacement and data center build-outs. He estimated that about one-third of the energy market growth where TE is positioned is driven by data center build-outs, and said the company views the energy business as more of a “mid-teens” grower for the year and into next year.

Automation and Connected Living sales rose 16%, or 14% organically, with growth across every region. Aerospace and defense sales increased 12%, supported by strength in commercial aerospace and defense markets. Curtin said defense is seeing a stronger inflection, particularly in Europe and the U.S., with backlog building as program velocity increases.

Transportation Segment Outperforms Vehicle Production TE’s Transportation Solutions segment grew 7% on a reported basis and 5% organically. Automotive sales increased 5% reported and 3% organically, despite what management described as a decline in vehicle production. Curtin said the company continues to benefit from higher content per vehicle, including data connectivity, electrification of the powertrain and software-defined vehicle architectures.

Curtin said TE expects automotive content outperformance in the range of four to six percentage points for fiscal 2026 and over the longer term. In China, he said TE’s business grew 6% against a 2% decline in production, reflecting eight points of outperformance. He added that exports by Chinese original equipment manufacturers are helping offset a weaker domestic market.

Commercial Transportation sales increased 20% on a reported basis and 18% organically. Curtin cited improving cycle trends across regions and market verticals, new program wins and further electrification of trucks in Asia. Transportation segment adjusted operating margin was 21%.

Record Orders Build Visibility Into Fiscal 2027 Management emphasized that order strength was broad-based. Industrial segment orders increased 36% from the prior year, while Transportation orders rose 19%. Curtin said every business across both segments delivered double-digit order growth.

Within Industrial, year-to-date DDN orders were up more than 70% versus last year, while energy, aerospace and defense, and Automation and Connected Living each posted 20% year-to-date order growth. Curtin said roughly half of the year-over-year Industrial order increase came from DDN, with AI program ramps contributing to backlog that is expected to support fiscal 2027 growth.

Chief Financial Officer Heath Mitts said the company will exit fiscal 2026 with a strong backlog position in both Industrial and Transportation. He said order momentum and backlog growth give management confidence that TE’s performance will continue into next year.

Cash Flow, Capital Returns and Astrodyne TDI Acquisition TE generated $1.2 billion of cash from operations and $883 million of free cash flow in the quarter. Year to date, free cash flow was approximately $2.2 billion. Mitts said TE has returned about $2 billion to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases so far this year and continues to expect free cash flow conversion of roughly 100% for fiscal 2026.

The company also announced an agreement to acquire Astrodyne TDI, a bolt-on acquisition expected to add more than $250 million in annual sales. TE said the purchase price is approximately $1.4 billion and the transaction is expected to close by the end of the calendar year, subject to customary closing conditions.

Curtin said Astrodyne TDI expands TE’s portfolio of power filters and custom power supplies for mission-critical applications, including semiconductor equipment, defense and medical markets. Mitts said the acquisition will be funded with cash and is expected to be accretive to TE’s growth rates and margins at both the company level and within the Industrial segment.

Fourth-Quarter Outlook For the fiscal fourth quarter, TE expects sales of approximately $5.25 billion, up 11% from the prior year, and adjusted EPS of about $3.05. Mitts said the adjusted effective tax rate is expected to be between 22% and 23% in the fourth quarter, while cash taxes are expected to remain well below the adjusted effective rate.

Management said the company continues to manage inflationary pressures through pricing and cost actions while investing in engineering and manufacturing capacity to support future growth.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We present non-GAAP performance and liquidity measures as we believe it is appropriate for investors to consider adjusted financial measures in addition to results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP"). These non-GAAP financial measures provide supplemental information and should not be considered replacements for results in accordance with GAAP. Management uses non-GAAP financial measures internally for planning and forecasting purposes and in its decision-making processes related to the operations of our company. We believe these measures provide meaningful information to us and investors because they enhance the understanding of our operating performance, ability to generate cash, and the trends of our business. Additionally, we believe that investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures that management uses in evaluating our operations. The primary limitation of these measures is that they exclude the financial impact of items that would otherwise either increase or decrease our reported results. This limitation is best addressed by using these non-GAAP financial measures in combination with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in order to better understand the amounts, character, and impact of any increase or decrease in reported amounts. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures reported by other companies.

The following provides additional information regarding our non-GAAP financial measures:

Organic Net Sales Growth (Decline) – represents net sales growth (decline) (the most comparable GAAP financial measure) excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, and acquisitions and divestitures that occurred in the preceding twelve months, if any. Organic Net Sales Growth (Decline) is a useful measure of our performance because it excludes items that are not completely under management's control, such as the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, and items that do not reflect the underlying growth of the company, such as acquisition and divestiture activity. This measure is a significant component in our incentive compensation plans.
  Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted Operating Margin – represent operating income and operating margin, respectively, (the most comparable GAAP financial measures) before special items including restructuring and other charges, acquisition-related charges, amortization expense on intangible assets, impairment of goodwill, and other income or charges, if any. We utilize these adjusted measures in combination with operating income and operating margin to assess segment level operating performance and to provide insight to management in evaluating segment operating plan execution and market conditions. Adjusted Operating Income is a significant component in our incentive compensation plans.
  Adjusted Income Tax (Expense) Benefit and Adjusted Effective Tax Rate – represent income tax (expense) benefit and effective tax rate, respectively, (the most comparable GAAP financial measures) after adjusting for the tax effect of special items including restructuring and other charges, acquisition-related charges, amortization expense on intangible assets, impairment of goodwill, other income or charges, and certain significant tax items, if any.
  Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations – represents income from continuing operations (the most comparable GAAP financial measure) before special items including restructuring and other charges, acquisition-related charges, amortization expense on intangible assets, impairment of goodwill, other income or charges, and certain significant tax items, if any, and, if applicable, the related tax effects.
  Adjusted Earnings Per Share – represents diluted earnings per share from continuing operations (the most comparable GAAP financial measure) before special items including restructuring and other charges, acquisition-related charges, amortization expense on intangible assets, impairment of goodwill, other income or charges, and certain significant tax items, if any, and, if applicable, the related tax effects. This measure is a significant component in our incentive compensation plans.
  Free Cash Flow (FCF) – is a useful measure of our ability to generate cash. The difference between net cash provided by operating activities (the most comparable GAAP financial measure) and Free Cash Flow consists mainly of significant cash outflows and inflows that we believe are useful to identify. We believe Free Cash Flow provides useful information to investors as it provides insight into the primary cash flow metric used by management to monitor and evaluate cash flows generated from our operations. Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities excluding voluntary pension contributions and the cash impact of special items, if any, minus net capital expenditures. Voluntary pension contributions are excluded from the GAAP financial measure because this activity is driven by economic financing decisions rather than operating activity. Certain special items, including cash paid (collected) pursuant to collateral requirements related to cross-currency swap contracts, are also excluded by management in evaluating Free Cash Flow. Net capital expenditures consist of capital expenditures less proceeds from the sale of property, plant, and equipment. These items are subtracted because they represent long-term commitments. In the calculation of Free Cash Flow, we subtract certain cash items that are ultimately within management's and the Board of Directors' discretion to direct and may imply that there is less or more cash available for our programs than the most comparable GAAP financial measure indicates. It should not be inferred that the entire Free Cash Flow amount is available for future discretionary expenditures, as our definition of Free Cash Flow does not consider certain non-discretionary expenditures, such as debt payments. In addition, we may have other discretionary expenditures, such as discretionary dividends, share repurchases, and business acquisitions, that are not considered in the calculation of Free Cash Flow.

Examples of factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the extent, severity and duration of business interruptions negatively affecting our business operations; business, economic, competitive and regulatory risks, such as conditions affecting demand for products in the automotive and other industries we serve; competition and pricing pressure; fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices; natural disasters and political, economic and military instability in countries in which we operate, including continuing military conflict in certain parts of the world; developments in the credit markets; future goodwill impairment; compliance with current and future environmental and other laws and regulations; and the possible effects on us of changes in tax laws, tax treaties and other legislation. More detailed information about these and other factors is set forth in TE Connectivity plc's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended Sept 26, 2025, as well as in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and other reports filed by us with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

SOURCE TE Connectivity plc

Key Takeaways TE Connectivity is set to report fiscal Q3 2026 results on July 22, with expected sales of nearly $5 billion. TEL's order momentum, AI-driven demand and Industrial Solutions strength are expected to support results. TEL faces pricing pressure, auto production variability, inflation, currency moves, and debt headwinds. TE Connectivity (TEL - Free Report) is scheduled to report its third-quarter fiscal 2026 results on July 22.

For the third quarter of fiscal 2026, adjusted earnings are projected to be approximately $2.83 per share, which indicates 17% year-over-year growth. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings is pegged at $2.85 per share, which has increased by a penny over the past 30 days. This indicates 25.55% growth from the figure reported in the year-ago quarter.

TE Connectivity expects third-quarter fiscal 2026 sales of approximately $5 billion, implying 10% reported growth and 9% organic growth year over year. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the to-be-reported quarter sales is pegged at $4.95 billion, suggesting 9.15% growth from the figure reported in the year-ago quarter.

TE Connectivity beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings in all the trailing four quarters, the average surprise being 5.97%.

Let’s see how things have shaped up for the upcoming announcement:

Factors to NoteTE Connectivity’s third-quarter fiscal 2026 performance is expected to have benefited from strong order momentum and backlog growth across all business segments. The company reported record orders of $5.3 billion in the fiscal second quarter, with a book-to-bill ratio of 1.12, indicating strong demand that is expected to carry into the fiscal third quarter.

Strong growth in its Industrial Solutions segment, particularly in digital data networks (DDN), energy, aerospace and defense, and factory automation, remains noteworthy. The DDN business, driven by AI-related demand, is projected to see an additional $150 million in revenues in the second half of the year, reflecting increased momentum and program ramps. The company’s recent acquisition of a leading passive optical connectivity technology further strengthens its position in both copper and optical solutions, supporting future growth in AI and data center applications.

The Industrial segment is also poised to benefit from secular growth trends in energy, aerospace and defense, and factory automation. In the fiscal second quarter, energy sales grew 60% (including acquisitions) and 11% organically, driven by investments in grid hardening, data center power infrastructure, and clean energy applications. This trend is expected to have continued in the to-be-reported quarter.

In the Transportation segment, TEL is leveraging its global leadership and co-creation model to outperform the market, particularly in commercial transportation and automotive. Commercial transportation sales grew 21% (17% organically) in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, with continued improvement in demand across all regions and increasing content per vehicle. Automotive content growth is expected to remain in the 4% to 6% range for fiscal 2026, driven by electrification, data connectivity, and electronification trends. Despite a flattish global auto production environment, TEL's strong order book and content gains are expected to have supported sequential and year-over-year growth in the to-be-reported quarter.

However, competitive pricing, auto production variability, input cost inflation, currency moves and a debt load that can constrain flexibility remain a headwind.

What Our Model SaysPer the Zacks model, the combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy), or 3 (Hold) increases the odds of an earnings beat. That’s the exact case here.

TE Connectivity currently has an Earnings ESP of +0.18% and a Zacks Rank #2. You can uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they’re reported with our Earnings ESP Filter.

Other Stocks to ConsiderHere are some companies worth considering, as our model shows that these have the right combination of elements to beat on earnings in their upcoming releases:

Amphenol (APH - Free Report) has an Earnings ESP of +1.12% and a Zacks Rank #1 at present. You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank stocks here.

Amphenol shares have gained 11.9% year to date. Amphenol is scheduled to report its second-quarter 2026 results on July 29.

ASE Technology (ASX - Free Report) has an Earnings ESP of +23.53% and a Zacks Rank #1.

ASE Technology shares have surged 138.6% year to date. ASE Technology is set to report its second-quarter 2026 results on July 30.

Fortive (FTV - Free Report) has an Earnings ESP of +2.82% and a Zacks Rank #2 at present.

Fortive shares have gained 11.9% in the year-to-date period. Fortive is set to report second-quarter 2026 results on July 29.

TE Connectivity (TEL - Free Report) is expected to deliver a year-over-year increase in earnings on higher revenues when it reports results for the quarter ended June 2026. This widely-known consensus outlook gives a good sense of the company's earnings picture, but how the actual results compare to these estimates is a powerful factor that could impact its near-term stock price.

The stock might move higher if these key numbers top expectations in the upcoming earnings report, which is expected to be released on July 22. On the other hand, if they miss, the stock may move lower.

While management's discussion of business conditions on the earnings call will mostly determine the sustainability of the immediate price change and future earnings expectations, it's worth having a handicapping insight into the odds of a positive EPS surprise.

Zacks Consensus EstimateThis electronics maker is expected to post quarterly earnings of $2.85 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +25.6%.

Revenues are expected to be $4.95 billion, up 9.2% from the year-ago quarter.

Estimate Revisions TrendThe consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days. This is essentially a reflection of how the covering analysts have collectively reassessed their initial estimates over this period.

Investors should keep in mind that an aggregate change may not always reflect the direction of estimate revisions by each of the covering analysts.

Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise

Earnings WhisperEstimate revisions ahead of a company's earnings release offer clues to the business conditions for the period whose results are coming out. This insight is at the core of our proprietary surprise prediction model -- the Zacks Earnings ESP (Expected Surprise Prediction).

The Zacks Earnings ESP compares the Most Accurate Estimate to the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the quarter; the Most Accurate Estimate is a more recent version of the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate. The idea here is that analysts revising their estimates right before an earnings release have the latest information, which could potentially be more accurate than what they and others contributing to the consensus had predicted earlier.

Thus, a positive or negative Earnings ESP reading theoretically indicates the likely deviation of the actual earnings from the consensus estimate. However, the model's predictive power is significant for positive ESP readings only.

A positive Earnings ESP is a strong predictor of an earnings beat, particularly when combined with a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold). Our research shows that stocks with this combination produce a positive surprise nearly 70% of the time, and a solid Zacks Rank actually increases the predictive power of Earnings ESP.

Please note that a negative Earnings ESP reading is not indicative of an earnings miss. Our research shows that it is difficult to predict an earnings beat with any degree of confidence for stocks with negative Earnings ESP readings and/or Zacks Rank of 4 (Sell) or 5 (Strong Sell).

How Have the Numbers Shaped Up for TE Connectivity?For TE Connectivity, the Most Accurate Estimate is higher than the Zacks Consensus Estimate, suggesting that analysts have recently become bullish on the company's earnings prospects. This has resulted in an Earnings ESP of +0.18%.

On the other hand, the stock currently carries a Zacks Rank of #2.

So, this combination indicates that TE Connectivity will most likely beat the consensus EPS estimate.

Does Earnings Surprise History Hold Any Clue?While calculating estimates for a company's future earnings, analysts often consider to what extent it has been able to match past consensus estimates. So, it's worth taking a look at the surprise history for gauging its influence on the upcoming number.

For the last reported quarter, it was expected that TE Connectivity would post earnings of $2.7 per share when it actually produced earnings of $2.73, delivering a surprise of +1.11%.

Over the last four quarters, the company has beaten consensus EPS estimates four times.

Bottom LineAn earnings beat or miss may not be the sole basis for a stock moving higher or lower. Many stocks end up losing ground despite an earnings beat due to other factors that disappoint investors. Similarly, unforeseen catalysts help a number of stocks gain despite an earnings miss.

That said, betting on stocks that are expected to beat earnings expectations does increase the odds of success. This is why it's worth checking a company's Earnings ESP and Zacks Rank ahead of its quarterly release. Make sure to utilize our Earnings ESP Filter to uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they've reported.

TE Connectivity appears a compelling earnings-beat candidate. However, investors should pay attention to other factors too for betting on this stock or staying away from it ahead of its earnings release.

Expected Results of an Industry PlayerVicor (VICR - Free Report) , another stock in the Zacks Electronics - Miscellaneous Components industry, is expected to report earnings per share of $0.62 for the quarter ended June 2026. This estimate points to a year-over-year change of -31.9%. Revenues for the quarter are expected to be $138.7 million, down 1.7% from the year-ago quarter.

Over the last 30 days, the consensus EPS estimate for Vicor has been revised 4.2% up to the current level. Nevertheless, the company now has an Earnings ESP of 0.00%, reflecting an equal Most Accurate Estimate.

This Earnings ESP, combined with its Zacks Rank #2 (Buy), makes it difficult to conclusively predict that Vicor will beat the consensus EPS estimate. Over the last four quarters, the company surpassed consensus EPS estimates two times.

Growth investors focus on stocks that are seeing above-average financial growth, as this feature helps these securities garner the market's attention and deliver solid returns. But finding a great growth stock is not easy at all.

In addition to volatility, these stocks carry above-average risk by their very nature. Also, one could end up losing from a stock whose growth story is actually over or nearing its end.

However, the Zacks Growth Style Score (part of the Zacks Style Scores system), which looks beyond the traditional growth attributes to analyze a company's real growth prospects, makes it pretty easy to find cutting-edge growth stocks.

TE Connectivity (TEL - Free Report) is one such stock that our proprietary system currently recommends. The company not only has a favorable Growth Score, but also carries a top Zacks Rank.

Studies have shown that stocks with the best growth features consistently outperform the market. And for stocks that have a combination of a Growth Score of A or B and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) or 2 (Buy), returns are even better.

Here are three of the most important factors that make the stock of this electronics maker a great growth pick right now.

Earnings GrowthArguably nothing is more important than earnings growth, as surging profit levels is what most investors are after. And for growth investors, double-digit earnings growth is definitely preferable, and often an indication of strong prospects (and stock price gains) for the company under consideration.

While the historical EPS growth rate for TE Connectivity is 7.8%, investors should actually focus on the projected growth. The company's EPS is expected to grow 29.1% this year, crushing the industry average, which calls for EPS growth of 23.1%.

Impressive Asset Utilization RatioGrowth investors often overlook asset utilization ratio, also known as sales-to-total-assets (S/TA) ratio, but it is an important feature of a real growth stock. This metric shows how efficiently a firm is utilizing its assets to generate sales.

Right now, TE Connectivity has an S/TA ratio of 0.74, which means that the company gets $0.74 in sales for each dollar in assets. Comparing this to the industry average of 0.7, it can be said that the company is more efficient.

While the level of efficiency in generating sales matters a lot, so does the sales growth of a company. And TE Connectivity is well positioned from a sales growth perspective too. The company's sales are expected to grow 13.1% this year versus the industry average of 2.7%.

Promising Earnings Estimate RevisionsSuperiority of a stock in terms of the metrics outlined above can be further validated by looking at the trend in earnings estimate revisions. A positive trend is of course favorable here. Empirical research shows that there is a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and near-term stock price movements.

There have been upward revisions in current-year earnings estimates for TE Connectivity. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the current year has surged 0.1% over the past month.

Bottom LineWhile the overall earnings estimate revisions have made TE Connectivity a Zacks Rank #2 stock, it has earned itself a Growth Score of B based on a number of factors, including the ones discussed above.

You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

This combination positions TE Connectivity well for outperformance, so growth investors may want to bet on it.

It doesn't matter your age or experience: taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals for all investors. Luckily, Zacks Premium offers several different ways to do both.

Featuring daily updates of the Zacks Rank and Zacks Industry Rank, full access to the Zacks #1 Rank List, Equity Research reports, and Premium stock screens, the research service can help you become a smarter, more self-assured investor.

Zacks Premium includes access to the Zacks Style Scores as well.

What are the Zacks Style Scores? The Zacks Style Scores is a unique set of guidelines that rates stocks based on three popular investing types, and were developed as complementary indicators for the Zacks Rank. This combination helps investors choose securities with the highest chances of beating the market over the next 30 days.

Each stock is given an alphabetic rating of A, B, C, D or F based on their value, growth, and momentum qualities. With this system, an A is better than a B, a B is better than a C, and so on, meaning the better the score, the better chance the stock will outperform.

The Style Scores are broken down into four categories:

Value ScoreValue investors love finding good stocks at good prices, especially before the broader market catches on to a stock's true value. Utilizing ratios like P/E, PEG, Price/Sales, Price/Cash Flow, and many other multiples, the Value Style Score identifies the most attractive and most discounted stocks.

Growth ScoreWhile good value is important, growth investors are more focused on a company's financial strength and health, and its future outlook. The Growth Style Score takes projected and historic earnings, sales, and cash flow into account to uncover stocks that will see long-term, sustainable growth.

Momentum ScoreMomentum traders and investors live by the saying "the trend is your friend." This investing style is all about taking advantage of upward or downward trends in a stock's price or earnings outlook. Employing factors like one-week price change and the monthly percentage change in earnings estimates, the Momentum Style Score can indicate favorable times to build a position in high-momentum stocks.

VGM ScoreWhat if you like to use all three types of investing? The VGM Score is a combination of all Style Scores, making it one of the most comprehensive indicators to use with the Zacks Rank. It rates each stock on their combined weighted styles, which helps narrow down the companies with the most attractive value, best growth forecast, and most promising momentum.

How Style Scores Work with the Zacks Rank A proprietary stock-rating model, the Zacks Rank utilizes the power of earnings estimate revisions, or changes to a company's earnings outlook, to help investors create a successful portfolio.

#1 (Strong Buy) stocks have produced an unmatched +24% average annual return since 1988, which is more than double the S&P 500's performance over the same time frame. However, the Zacks Rank examines a ton of stocks, and there can be more than 200 companies with a Strong Buy rank, and another 600 with a #2 (Buy) rank, on any given day.

But it can feel overwhelming to pick the right stocks for you and your investing goals with over 800 top-rated stocks to choose from.

That's where the Style Scores come in.

You want to make sure you're buying stocks with the highest likelihood of success, and to do that, you'll need to pick stocks with a Zacks Rank #1 or #2 that also have Style Scores of A or B. If you like a stock that only has a #3 (Hold) rank, it should also have Scores of A or B to guarantee as much upside potential as possible.

Since the Scores were created to work together with the Zacks Rank, the direction of a stock's earnings estimate revisions should be a key factor when choosing which stocks to buy.

A stock with a #4 (Sell) or #5 (Strong Sell) rating, for instance, even one with Scores of A and B, will still have a declining earnings forecast, and a greater chance its share price will fall too.

Thus, the more stocks you own with a #1 or #2 Rank and Scores of A or B, the better.

Stock to Watch: TE Connectivity (TEL - Free Report) TE Connectivity is a global technology company that designs and manufactures connectivity and sensor solutions for a wide range of industries, including automotive, aerospace, defense, energy, and medical. With operations in over 130 countries, the company provides innovative products that enable connectivity across diverse sectors.

TEL is a #3 (Hold) on the Zacks Rank, with a VGM Score of B.

Additionally, the company could be a top pick for growth investors. TEL has a Growth Style Score of A, forecasting year-over-year earnings growth of 28.8% for the current fiscal year.

Five analysts revised their earnings estimate higher in the last 60 days for fiscal 2026, while the Zacks Consensus Estimate has increased $0.20 to $11.28 per share. TEL also boasts an average earnings surprise of +6%.

With a solid Zacks Rank and top-tier Growth and VGM Style Scores, TEL should be on investors' short list.
