Read MoreHide Full Article
HighPeak Energy Inc. (HPK - Free Report) is set to report second-quarter 2022 earnings results on Aug 8, after the closing bell.
In the last reported quarter, the independent oil and natural gas company’s earnings of 32 cents per share missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 51 cents. In the trailing four quarters, HighPeak’s bottom line beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate once and missed the same thrice, the average negative surprise being 16%. This is depicted in the graph below:
Let’s delve into the factors that are anticipated to have influenced the company’s performance in the June-end quarter.
Estimate Trend
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for its second-quarter earnings per share of 76 cents has witnessed no upward revision and one downward movement in the past 30 days. The consensus estimate suggests a significant increase from 6 cents reported in the year-ago quarter.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the to-be-reported quarter’s revenues of $168 million indicates a 250% improvement from the year-ago reported figure.
Factors to Note
In the June-end quarter of 2022, oil and natural gas prices were significantly higher than the year-ago quarter. Higher commodity prices are expected to have aided HighPeak’s bottom line in the to-be-reported quarter as the company explores and produces crude oil and natural gas in the Permian Basin of West Texas, one of the most prolific oil and gas producing regions in the country.
