Eversource (ES) to Report Q3 Earnings: What's in the Offing?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Eversource Energy (ES - Free Report) is slated to release third-quarter 2020 financial results on Nov 4. The utility delivered an earnings surprise of 1.3% in the last reported quarter.
Let’s discuss the factors that are likely to get reflected in the upcoming quarterly results.
Factors to Consider
Eversource’s third-quarter earnings are expected to have benefited from regulatory commission-approved distribution revenue decoupling mechanisms. Strong demand from residential customers is expected to have offset the slow recovery of demand from industrial and commercial customers in the to-be-reported quarter.
The storms that lashed Eversource’s service territories during the third quarter disrupted operations and are likely to have hurt its performance.
Expectation
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter revenues and earnings per share is pegged at $2.27 billion and $1.02, indicating 4.1% and 4.08% growth, respectively, from the year-ago reported figures.
Our proven model does not conclusively predict an earnings beat for Eversource this time around. The combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) increases the odds of an earnings beat. That is not the case here as you will see below.
Earnings ESP: Its Earnings ESP is -1.06%.

Pinnacle West Capital Corporation (PNW - Free Report) is slated to release third-quarter 2020 results on Oct 30. It has an Earnings ESP of +0.98% and a Zacks Rank #3.
