Cabot Oil & Gas (NYSE:COG) announces its next round of earnings this Friday, July 30. Here is Benzinga's everything-that-matters guide for this Friday's Q2 earnings announcement.
Earnings and EPS are useful metrics of profitability. Total earnings also known as net income is equal to total revenue minus total expenses. Dividing net income by the total number of shares outstanding yields EPS.
Cabot Oil & Gas EPS will likely be near $0.31 while revenue will be around $447.14 million, according to analysts. Cabot Oil & Gas earnings in the same period a year ago was $0.05 per share. Quarterly sales came in at $332.35 million.
Wall Street analysts who study this company will publish analyst estimates of revenue and EPS. The averages of all analyst EPS and revenue estimates are called the "consensus estimates"; these consensus estimates can have a significant effect on a company's performance during an earnings release. When a company posts earnings or revenue above or below a consensus estimate, it has posted an "earnings surprise", which can really move a stock depending on the difference between actual and estimated values.
If the company were to report earnings in line when it publishes results Friday, quarterly profit would be up 520.0%. Revenue would be up 34.54% from the same quarter last year. In comparison to analyst estimates in the past, here is how the company's reported EPS stacks up:
| Quarter | Q1 2021 | Q4 2020 | Q3 2020 | Q2 2020 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EPS Estimate | 0.35 | 0.21 | 0.07 | 0.02 |
| EPS Actual | 0.38 | 0.26 | 0.09 | 0.05 |
| Revenue Estimate | 471.50 M | 417.46 M | 349.12 M | 304.04 M |
| Revenue Actual | 459.68 M | 456.78 M | 291.04 M | 332.35 M |
