Centennial (CDEV) to Report Q1 Earnings: What's in the Cards?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Centennial Resource Development, Inc. is set to report first-quarter 2022 earnings results on May 4, after the closing bell.
In the last reported quarter, the upstream energy company reported adjusted earnings of 39 cents per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 30 cents, owing to higher oil equivalent production and realized commodity prices.
Centennial’s bottom line beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate thrice and missed the same once in the trailing four quarters, the average surprise being 8.1%. This is depicted in the graph below:
Centennial Resource Development Price and EPS Surprise
Let’s see how things have shaped up prior to this announcement.
Estimate Trend
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for its first-quarter earnings per share of 40 cents has witnessed five upward revisions and no downward movement in the past 30 days. The estimate suggests a significant increase from the year-ago quarter’s loss of 1 cent per share.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the to-be-reported quarter’s revenues of $307 million indicates a 60% improvement from the year-ago reported figure.
Factors to Consider
In the March-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 Centennial’s operations in the first quarter. This is because the company is a pure-play Permian Basin — the most prolific oil resource in the United States — hydrocarbon producer.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Centennial’s oil production in the first quarter is pegged at 33,067 barrels per day (Bbls/d), suggesting an increase from 28,239 Bbls/d reported in the year-ago quarter. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for its total gas production is pegged at 111,353 thousand cubic feet per day (Mcf/d), suggesting an improvement from 103,806 Mcf/d recorded in the year-ago quarter.
Thus, higher oil and gas prices were favorable for Centennial’s exploration and production activities in the to-be-reported quarter.
