Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $JB Hunt Transport Services (JBHT.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
J.B. Hunt's third-quarter earnings per share (EPS) of $1.49 were 9% lower on a year-over-year basis, yet surpassed expectations, with predicted figures being $1.35 and the average estimate at $1.39. This outperformance was primarily due to higher-than-anticipated Intermodal Load growth as shippers advanced their volumes in response to potential disruptions from an anticipated East Coast Port strike. Subsequent to the earnings report, projections for the company's 2024 EPS were increased slightly by 2% to $5.70, and the 2025 EPS projection was maintained, which stands notably higher than the average analyst estimate.
Expectations were modest, yet improved intermodal volume and yield trends suggest a marginally better outlook for the remainder of 2024. This is despite worries that recent activity may have been spurred by temporary 'pull forward' demand.
J.B. Hunt's third-quarter EPS surpassed the anticipated consensus, largely propelled by intermodal volume contributions. While the exact impact of inventory pull forward wasn't specified, it played a significant role. Despite positive highlights in the quarter, there remains considerable work to be done in the areas of pricing, volume, and cost savings in the upcoming year.

此外，综合报道，$JB亨特运输服务 (JBHT.US)$近期主要分析师观点如下：
J.b.亨特第三季度每股收益（EPS）为1.49美元，较去年同期下降9％，但高于预期，预测数为1.35美元，平均估算数为1.39美元。这种超常表现主要是由于运输商提前增加成交量，对潜在的东海岸港口罢工可能引起的干扰做出反应，导致超出预期的联运装载量增长。在收益报告之后，公司2024年EPS的预测略有增加2％至5.70美元，并保持了2025年EPS的预测，这一数字明显高于平均分析师估计。
预期相对谨慎，但改善的铁路集装箱货物量和收益趋势显示，2024年剩余时间的前景略有改善。尽管担心最近的活动可能受到暂时性的“拉动”需求的影响。
J.b.亨特第三季度的EPS超过了预期的共识，主要受到联运量贡献的推动。虽然没有明确提及库存拉动的确切影响，但其发挥了重要作用。尽管本季度有积极亮点，但在未来一年的定价、量和成本节约方面仍有大量工作要做。
