Peabody Energy (BTU) to Report Q3 Earnings: What's in Store?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Peabody Energy Corporation (BTU - Free Report) is scheduled to release third-quarter 2023 results on Oct 26, before market open. The company delivered a negative earnings surprise of 24.7% in the last reported quarter.
Let’s discuss the factors that are likely to be reflected in the upcoming quarterly results.
Factors to Consider
Peabody Energy will continue to benefit from its diverse asset base and low-cost U.S. thermal segments. The company’s third-quarter earnings are also likely to have benefited from its continued share repurchase program.
BTU’s continued debt reduction is likely to have decreased capital financing costs and raised profitability in the to-be-reported quarter.
The company is also expected to have benefited from increased tons of coal sold during the quarter.
Q3 Expectations
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for BTU’s earnings is pegged at 80 cents per share, indicating a year-over-year decrease of 55.1%.
The consensus mark for revenues is pinned at $1.09 billion, indicating a deterioration of 19.1% year over year.
The consensus estimate for the total amount of coal sold is pegged at 31.1 million tons, up 7.6% from the previous quarter’s reported figure.
