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，綜合報道，$JB亨特運輸服務 (JBHT.US)$近期主要分析師觀點如下：
J.b.亨特第三季度每股收益（EPS）爲1.49美元，較去年同期下降9％，但高於預期，預測數爲1.35美元，平均估算數爲1.39美元。這種超常表現主要是由於運輸商提前增加成交量，對潛在的東海岸港口罷工可能引起的干擾做出反應，導致超出預期的聯運裝載量增長。在收益報告之後，公司2024年EPS的預測略有增加2％至5.70美元，並保持了2025年EPS的預測，這一數字明顯高於平均分析師估計。
預期相對謹慎，但改善的鐵路集裝箱貨物量和收益趨勢顯示，2024年剩餘時間的前景略有改善。儘管擔心最近的活動可能受到暫時性的「拉動」需求的影響。
J.b.亨特第三季度的EPS超過了預期的共識，主要受到聯運量貢獻的推動。雖然沒有明確提及庫存拉動的確切影響，但其發揮了重要作用。儘管本季度有積極亮點，但在未來一年的定價、量和成本節約方面仍有大量工作要做。
以下爲今日8位分析師對$JB亨特運輸服務 (JBHT.US)$的最新投資評級及目標價：
