What's in Store for Yingli Green Energy (YGE) in Q2 Earnings?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Yingli Green Energy Holding Company Limited , better known as Yingli Green Energy, is scheduled to report second-quarter 2017 results before the opening bell on Sep 19.
Last quarter, the company delivered a positive earnings surprise of 35.24%. Let’s see how things are shaping up for this announcement.
Factors to Consider
During the first-quarter earnings call, Yingli Green Energy stated that it expects to witness a a significant increase in its second quarter shipments, which is estimated to be around 950 to 1,050 megawatts. Moreover, China is projected to comprise over 80% of the total shipment.
However, in spite of a notable improvement anticipated in the to-be-reported quarter’s shipment volumes on a sequential basis, the PV module average price of the company is projected to decrease faster than the module production cost.
Furthermore, due to fall in average selling price (ASP) globally, Yingli Green Energy expects second-quarter gross margin to be affected.
Earnings Whispers
Our proven model does not conclusively show that Yingli Green Energy will beat estimates this quarter. This is because a stock needs to have both a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) for this to happen. But that is not the case here, as you will see below.
Zacks ESP: Earnings ESP, which represents the difference between the Most Accurate estimate and the Zacks Consensus Estimate, is 0.00%. This is because both the Most Accurate estimate and the Zacks Consensus Estimate for Yingli Green Energy are pegged at a loss of $2.05. You can uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they’re reported with our Earnings ESP Filter.
Note that we caution against stocks with a Zacks Rank #4 or 5 (Sell rated) going into the earnings announcement, especially when the company is seeing negative estimate revisions.
