Independent natural gas producer EXCO Resources Inc. is set to release its first-quarter 2017 results after the closing bell on Tuesday, May 9.
Factors to Consider This Quarter
At the end of the first quarter, natural gas was trading at around $3.20 per million British thermal units – in a sweet spot compared to the corresponding period of 2016 when the commodity dropped to its worst level in almost 17 years.
Moreover, the company’s successful cost-reduction initiatives are expected to cushion the results to a large extent. EXCO Resources’ efforts to improve liquidity and restructure the balance sheet to enhance capital structure are also expected to have a positive impact on the quarterly results.
However, EXCO Resources’ core operational region – the Haynesville shale – has seen a drastic fall in the number of gas rigs employed. Production is likely to suffer as a result.
Apart from EXCO Resources, here are some other firms from the energy space that are expected to come out with first quarter earnings in the next few days:
Penn Virginia Corp. , with a Zacks Rank #1, is likely to release earnings on May 9.
Bellatrix Exploration Ltd. , with a Zacks Rank #1, is likely to release earnings on May 10.
