ONEOK (OKE) to Report Q1 Earnings: What's in the Offing?
Read MoreHide Full Article
ONEOK Inc. (OKE - Free Report) is scheduled to release first-quarter 2024 results on Apr 30, after market close. The company delivered a negative earnings surprise of 2.5% in the last reported quarter.
Let’s discuss the factors that are likely to be reflected in the upcoming quarterly results.
Factors to Consider
ONEOK’s first-quarter earnings are expected to have gained from strong fee-based contracts, as more than 90% of its revenues are likely to have been fee-based.
The company’s first-quarter earnings are projected to have gained from higher number of wells connected in its Rocky Mountain and Mid-Continent regions. This should have further increased natural gas gathering and processing volumes.
However, higher interest expenses might offset some of the positives in the to-be-reported quarter.
Q1 Expectations
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings is pegged at $1.19 per share, indicating a year-over-year decrease of 49.2%. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pinned at $5.84 billion, indicating an increase of 29.3% year over year.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Raw feed throughput is pinned at 1,400 thousand barrels of oil, up 11.5% year over year. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Natural gas gathered per day in pegged at 3,129 billion British thermal units, up 12% year over year.
