Read MoreHide Full Article
Star Bulk Corporation (SBLK - Free Report) is scheduled to release second-quarter 2021 results on Aug 5, after market close.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company’s second-quarter earnings has been revised upward by 15.2% in the past 60 days. The company has an average track record with respect to earnings surprise history, having outperformed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in only two of the last four quarters, while missing estimates in the other two.
Let’s see how things are shaping up for Star Bulk this earnings season.
Continued reopening of the global economy and the resultant improvement in demand across all key dry bulk commodities are expected to have aided Star Bulk’s second-quarter performance. This is expected to get reflected in voyage revenues.
Continued fleet expansion initiatives are likely to have driven performance in the to-be-reported quarter. With the expected increase in Time Charter Equivalent rates, revenues for the same are expected to have improved in the to-be-reported quarter.
However, the anticipated increase in vessel operating expenses due to additional crew expenses associated with increase in the number of crew changes might have partly hurt the bottom line in the second quarter.
