Read MoreHide Full Article

TotalEnergies (TTE - Free Report) is set to report first-quarter 2023 earnings on Apr 27, before the opening bell. This company reported a positive earnings surprise of 1.37% in the last reported quarter.

Let’s focus on the factors that might have impacted its first-quarter performance.

Factors at Play

TotalEnergies’ first-quarter performance is likely to have benefited from start-ups and low-cost production.
 
TotalEnergies' first-quarter earnings are also likely to have benefited from acquisitions, the monetization of non-core assets and the expansion of LNG operations. Share repurchases during the first quarter of 2023 are likely to have had a positive impact on earnings.  

However, positive developments are expected to have been marginally offset by the gradual suspension of TotalEnergies’ operations in Russia.

Expectation

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for TotalEnergies’ first-quarter earnings per share is $2.43, which indicates a 28.5% decline from the year-ago reported figure.
