<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Rockwell Automation has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Rockwell Automation's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Rockwell Automation's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 10.34%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze/">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Rockwell Automation Posts Upbeat Earnings, Joins Insperity, BP, Alibaba And Other Big Stocks Moving Higher On Monday

Rockwell Automation, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ROK#NYSE">ROK</a>) shares surged after the company reported <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/b43588368/rockwell-automation-reports-first-quarter-2025-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">better-than-expected first-quarter results.</a>
Sales fell 8.4% year over year and slid 7.6% organically to $1.881 billion, in line with the consensus of $1.881 billion.
Segment Details: Intelligent Devices sales declined 13.1% to $806 million, Software &amp; Control fell 12.4% to $529 million, and Lifecycle Services rose 5% to $546 million.
Total ARR grew 11%. Adjusted EPS was $1.83 (-10% YoY), <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">above the analyst consensus of $1.59.</a>
Total segment operating earnings for the quarter fell 10% year-over-year to $321 million. Segment operating margin declined slightly to 17.1% from 17.3%, impacted by lower sales volume, though partially offset by cost reductions and margin expansion efforts.
Operating cash flow was $364 million, up from $33 million year over year. Free cash flow reached $293 million, compared to a $35 million outflow last year. The increase was mainly due to no payout of incentive compensation in the&nbsp;first quarter&nbsp;of fiscal 2025 related to fiscal 2024 performance.
&#8220;From a demand perspective, we are encouraged by better-than-expected order performance in the quarter with sequential growth across all regions and business segments. While there is still some macroeconomic and policy uncertainty weighing on customers' capex plans, Rockwell won multi-million dollar strategic orders across key industries, especially in the U.S., our home market,&#8221; commented Blake Moret, Chairman and CEO.
&#8220;Q1 margins and EPS came in well above our expectations this quarter, reflecting some early benefits of Rockwell&#8217;s renewed focus on operational excellence and cost discipline,&#8221; added Moret.
The company repurchased 0.4 million shares for $99 million during the quarter. As of December 31, $1.2 billion remained under existing repurchase authorizations.
Return on Invested Capital for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, was 14.5%, down from 18.5% in the prior year, primarily due to lower pre-tax net income.
FY25 Outlook updates: Rockwell continues to expect adjusted EPS of $8.60 – $9.80 versus the $9.40 estimate.
The company lowered sales midpoint expectations to ~$8.1 billion from the prior view of ~$8.2 billion <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">versus the $8.225 billion estimate.</a>
The company updated fiscal 2025 reported sales growth range to (5.5)% &#8211; 0.5% due to ~(1.5)% FX impact to sales, reaffirmed organic sales growth range of (4)% &#8211; 2%.
Price Action: ROK shares are trading higher by 9.36% at $293.51 at the last check Monday.
