Altice (ATUS) to Report Q2 Earnings: What's in the Cards?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Altice USA, Inc. (ATUS - Free Report) is scheduled to report second-quarter 2021 results on Jul 28, after the closing bell. In the last reported quarter, the company delivered an earnings surprise of 100%. It pulled off a trailing four-quarter earnings surprise of 61.5%, on average.
This Long Island City, NY-based company is expected to have recorded year-over-year higher revenues in the second quarter. Increased demand for broadband and higher speeds is likely to have majorly driven its performance.
Factors at Play
Altice, the provider of Optimum and Suddenlink-branded broadband services, accelerated its network performance through investments in fiber and enhanced its product offerings.
During the quarter, Altice completed the acquisition of Morris Broadband, LLC for an enterprise value of $310 million, expanding its footprint in North Carolina.
Altice introduced the Smart Wi-Fi 6, an evolution to its connectivity portfolio, to support the growing data usage of consumers and number of connected devices at homes.
Altice launched the Federal Communications Commission’s Emergency Broadband Benefit Program. The company is committed to keeping communities connected and make broadband more accessible.
News 12 Networks, in partnership with the Google News Initiative, unveiled an AI solution that creates automated content destinations for local media companies. Owned by Altice, News 12 is part of the Altice News group. Such developments are likely to have had a positive impact on Altice’s top line.
For the June quarter, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $2,516 million, which indicates growth of 1.7% from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure. The consensus estimate for adjusted earnings per share is pegged at 47 cents, which suggests an increase of 147.4%.
