Atlas Air (AAWW) to Report Q2 Earnings: What's in the Cards?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Atlas Air Worldwide Holdings is scheduled to report second-quarter 2021 results on Aug 5, before market open.
The company has a stellar surprise record with its earnings having topped the Zacks Consensus Estimate in each of the last four quarters, the average being 59.4%.
With this, let’s take a look at the factors that might have impacted the company’s June-quarter performance.
Atlas Air Worldwide Holdings Price and EPS Surprise
We expect Atlas Air’s second-quarter performance to have been buoyed by upbeat airfreight demand and higher airfreight volumes. The company is likely to have benefitted from higher commercial cargo charter yields in the quarter to be reported.
However, the company’s second-quarter numbers are likely to have been impacted by pandemic-related expenses (including pilot premium pay and operational costs). Increase in average fuel price per gallon as oil prices move north is likely to have impacted the bottom line in the to-be-reported quarter.
What Does the Zacks Model Say?
Our proven Zacks model does not predict an earnings beat for Atlas Air this time around. The combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) increases the chances of an earnings beat. However, this is not the case here as illustrated below. You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank stocks here.
