What's in Store for Teekay Tankers (TNK) in Q4 Earnings?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Teekay Tankers (TNK - Free Report) is scheduled to release fourth-quarter 2019 earnings numbers on Feb 27, before market open.
The company flaunts an impressive earnings record, having delivered a positive earnings surprise in three of the last four quarters while meeting the bottom-line estimates in the remaining quarter. The average beat is roughly 49.7%.
Given this backdrop, let’s delve into the factors that might have influenced the company’s performance in the to-be-reported quarter.
Teekay Tankers’ top line in the fourth quarter is likely to have been aided by higher voyage charter revenues. Akin to the previous quarterly results, voyage charter revenues might have contributed to bulk of the top line.
Revenues are expected to have benefited from higher number of net revenue days in the December quarter owing to fewer scheduled dry dockings. Moreover, high oil tanker rates for most part of the quarter to be reported are likely to have driven the company’s quarterly performance.
However, Teekay Tankers’ bottom line is likely to reflect the negative impact of higher vessel operating expenses in the to-be-reported results, primarily due to maintenance and repair costs. Moreover, time-charter hire expenses in the period under review might have also been high due to a full-quarter operation of one chartered-in vessel delivered in late third-quarter 2019.
What Does the Zacks Model Say?
The proven Zacks model does not conclusively predict an earnings beat for Teekay Tankers this time around. The right combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) increases the chances of beating estimates. However, that is not the case here as elaborated below. You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank stocks here.
