CME Group (CME) to Report Q2 Earnings: What's in the Offing?
Read MoreHide Full Article
CME Group (CME - Free Report) is slated to report second-quarter 2022 earnings on Jul 27 , before market open. CME delivered an earnings surprise in each of the last four quarters, the average being 3.27%.
Factors to Consider
The top line in the to-be-reported quarter is likely to have been aided by improved clearing, transaction fees and other revenues, and market data and information services. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the top line is pegged at $1.2 billion, indicating an increase of 5.2% from the year-ago reported figure.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for clearing and transaction fees is pegged at $1.3 billion, indicating an increase of 10.7% from the year-ago reported figure. An increase in volumes traded, given a sturdy market position with diverse derivative product lines and global reach, is likely to have driven clearing and transaction fees.
Recently, CME Group reported a decent average daily volume (ADV) for the second quarter. ADV of 23.1 million contracts per day reflects the third-highest quarterly volume. It improved 25% year over year due to increased volumes in three of the six product lines.
The interest rate volume of 10.6 million contracts per day increased 24%. Foreign exchange volumes increased 24% to 0.9 million contracts per day. Metals volume of 0.5 million contracts per day decreased 15%. Energy volume of 1.9 million contracts decreased 2% year over year while Equity index volume of nearly 7.8 million contracts per day increased 57%. Agricultural volume of 1.3 million contracts per day increased 24%.
ADV outside the United States increased 21% to 6.3 million contracts in Q2, including 40% growth in Latin America, 36% in Asia and 15% in EMEA.
Market data and information services revenues are likely to have increased owing to price increases for certain device fees. The consensus estimate for market data and information services is pegged at $151 million, up 4.1% from the year-ago reported figure.
Expenses are likely to have decreased in the to-be-reported quarter due to lower compensation and benefits, technology, reduced professional fees and outside services, amortization of purchased intangibles, lower depreciation and amortization.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for second-quarter earnings per share is pegged at $1.92, indicating an increase of 17.1% from the year-ago quarter reported figure.
What the Zacks Model Says
Our proven model does not conclusively predict an earnings beat for CME Group this time around. A stock needs to have the right combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) for an earnings beat. That is not the case below.
Earnings ESP: CME Group has an Earnings ESP of 0.00%. This is because both the Most Accurate Estimate and the Zacks Consensus Estimate are pegged at $1.92. You can uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they are reported with our Earnings ESP Filter.
