Chesapeake Energy Corporation Price and EPS Surprise
Let’s see how things have shaped up prior to the announcement.
Estimate Trend
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for CHK’s second-quarter earnings per share of $3.74 has witnessed four upward revisions and no downward movement in the past 30 days. The consensus estimate suggests a year-over-year increase of 128%.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the second quarter’s revenues of $1.7 billion indicates a 147.3% improvement from the year-ago reported figure.
Factors to Consider
In the June-end quarter, crude oil and natural gas prices were significantly higher than the prior-year quarter. Healthier commodity prices are likely to have aided Chesapeake Energy since the company is a leading upstream energy player.
