What's in Store for Matador Resources' (MTDR) Q2 Earnings?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Matador Resources Company (MTDR - Free Report) is set to report earnings for second-quarter 2022 on Jul 26, after the closing bell.
In the last reported quarter, Matador Resources’ earnings per share of $2.32 beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2.05, owing to increased oil-equivalent production volumes and higher commodity price realizations.
MTDR’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in all the trailing four quarters, with the average surprise being 25.2%. This is depicted in the graph below:
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for second-quarter earnings per share of $3.07 has witnessed two upward and downward revisions over the past 60 days. The estimated figure suggests a 201% improvement from the prior-year reported number.
The consensus estimate for second-quarter revenues of $797.5 million indicates a 123.1% increase from the year-ago reported figure.
Factors to Consider
The pricing scenario of West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude was considerably higher in the second quarter of this year compared to the year-ago period. Per data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration, the monthly WTI crude spot prices for this year’s April, May and June were $101.78 per barrel, $109.55 per barrel and $114.84 per barrel, respectively. The commodity prices were higher than last year’s prices of $61.72 per barrel, $65.17 per barrel and $71.38 per barrel, respectively. The significant crude price improvement was primarily supported by the invasion of Ukraine by Russia. This is likely to have aided its second-quarter earnings.
High oil price was favorable for exploration and production operations of MTDR in the June quarter. This is because Matador Resources has a strong footprint in the liquid-rich Wolfcamp and Bone Spring plays in the Delaware Basin in Southeast New Mexico and West Texas.
