CNX Resources (CNX) to Report Q2 Earnings: What's in Store?

Read MoreHide Full Article

CNX Resources Corporation (CNX - Free Report) is scheduled to release second-quarter 2022 earnings on Jul 28, before market open. This exploration and production company delivered an average earnings surprise of 22.8% in the last four reported quarters.

Let’s discuss the factors that are likely to get reflected in the upcoming quarterly results.

Factors to Consider

CNX Resources’ earnings in the second quarter are likely to have benefited from lower shares outstanding, as the company has been opportunistically repurchasing shares from the open market. Stable production volumes from high-quality assets and high prices are expected to have boosted the company’s second-quarter performance.

CNX Resources utilized free cash flow to lower the outstanding debt level by more than $74 million in the first three months of 2022, which in turn is likely to have lowered capital servicing costs and aided margins, in the second quarter.

Expectations

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for second-quarter earnings per share stands at 79 cents, suggesting a 338.9% rise from the year-ago reported figure.
