Dominion Energy (D) to Report Q1 Earnings: What's in Store?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Dominion Energy Inc. (D - Free Report) is scheduled to release first-quarter 2021 earnings on May 4, before the market opens. This utility delivered an earnings surprise of 5.2% in the last reported quarter.
Let’s see how things have shaped up before the upcoming earnings announcement.
Factors to Note
Dominion Energy’s first-quarter earnings are likely to have been impacted by two damaging ice storms that hit its service territories during the quarter, resulting in outages and increased operating expenses.
Repurchase of shares in 2020 and the resultant reduction of shares outstanding are likely to have positively impacted first-quarter earnings. Moreover, addition to the company’s electric and natural gas customer base is expected to have boosted demand and first-quarter earnings.
Expectation
Dominion Energy expects first-quarter earnings in the range of $1-$1.15 per share. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the same is pegged at $1.08 per share, indicating a decline of 0.9% from the year-ago reported figure.

Duke Energy Corporation (DUK - Free Report) is slated to release first-quarter 2021 earnings on May 10. It has an Earnings ESP of +0.16% and a Zacks Rank #3.
These Stocks Are Poised to Soar Past the Pandemic
