What happened

Brown & Brown reported third-quarter earnings and revenue that fell short of what analysts expected. Adjusted profit was $1.07 per share and revenue was $1.73 billion, both slightly below estimates, even though both grew from a year earlier.

Global impact / market context

The company grew, but not as much as analysts had expected. When results miss expectations, investors may worry that growth is slowing, which can affect how the stock is viewed.

What to watch

  1. Check whether the company meets, misses, or beats analyst estimates in its next report, because a second miss could add to worries about slowing growth.
  2. Watch the revenue growth rate next quarter, because growth of 7.4% this quarter still came in below expectations.
  3. Watch the adjusted profit per share next quarter, because it grew from a year earlier but still missed estimates.
