What's in Store for Matador Resources (MTDR) in Q3 Earnings?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Matador Resources Company (MTDR - Free Report) is set to report third-quarter 2021 results on Oct 26, after the closing bell.
In the last reported quarter, the company’s earnings of $1.02 per share beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 72 cents, owing to increased production volumes and higher realizations of commodity prices.
The upstream energy player beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the bottom line in the prior four reported quarters, delivering an earnings surprise of 122.9%, on average. This is depicted in the graph below:
Let’s see how things have shaped up prior to the upcoming earnings announcement.
Trend in Estimate Revision
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter earnings per share of 98 cents has seen two upward revisions and one downward movement in the past 30 days. The figure indicates an increase of 880% from the year-ago quarter.
Further, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues of $388.7 million suggests an 91.1% rise from the prior-year quarter.
Factors to Consider
Compared with the September quarter of 2020, oil price has recovered significantly, thanks to the rolling out of coronavirus vaccines at a massive scale. Higher oil price is likely to have aided upstream energy players. Having a strong presence in oil-rich Wolfcamp and Bone Spring plays in the Delaware Basin, Matador is expected to have benefited from a favorable commodity pricing scenario.
Higher oil price is likely to have provided incentives to increased production. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for total daily oil equivalent production for the September quarter is pegged at 83,625 barrels of oil equivalent (BoE/D), suggesting an increase from 72,989 BoE/D in the prior year quarter.
The positives are likely to have been offset partially by rising expenses related to production taxes, transportation and processing.
Earnings Whispers
Our proven model does not indicate an earnings beat for Matador 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. That is not the case here, as you will see below.
Earnings ESP: The company’s Earnings ESP is -2.73%. You can uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they’re reported with our Earnings ESP Filter.
