Tutor Perini (TPC) is the kind of stock that just jumps off the screen for anyone following the Zen Ratings.
This made it nearly impossible for me to ignore the company leading to its early September addition to the Zen Investor portfolio. Not surprisingly it has enjoyed non-stop outperformance ever since…and suspect that the upward trajectory will continue.
Let’s take a step back to appreciate the full story. And that starts with my researching of the top 7 stocks in our AI Factor strategy.
TPC was my favorite of those 7 stocks because because it turned out to be the 3rd highest rated in the Zen Ratings universe. Meaning that out of 4,674 stocks analyzed, Tutor Perini had the 3rd highest score at 99.94 percentile. That is some rarified air in the Zen Ratings world.
On top of that they are the #1 rated stock in the A rated Engineering & Construction industry. Meaning there are good industry trends in the construction field that has the whole group so highly rated.
TPC truly blew everyone’s mind this earnings season.
Nope...it’s not the modest 12% earnings beat. It was the explosion in future guidance as their backlog of construction projects took a massive leap higher providing excellent profit visibility into the future.
With that, earnings estimates for this year nearly doubled from $1.81 to $3.34. The good news wasn’t over there as they see profits much higher for coming years which has earnings prospects for 2026, 2027 and beyond on the rise.
Back to the excellence found across the board with its Zen Ratings analysis.
Top 25% Sentiment
Top 20% Value
Top 14% AI Factors
Top 12% Safety
Top 4% Momentum
Top 1% Growth
Again, if you believe in the alpha packed inside the Zen Ratings, then it's hard to overlook the tremendous merits of TPC.
Typically, once this kind of earnings momentum starts, it continues for quite a while.
So, I expect more earnings beats...and more raised guidance...and more share price gains to come, making it very appealing to add TPC shares today given its sky high potential.
