What's in the Cards for DTE Energy (DTE) in Q4 Earnings?
Read MoreHide Full Article
DTE Energy Company (DTE - Free Report) is slated to report fourth-quarter and full-year 2022 results on Feb 23, before the opening bell.
Its bottom line outpaced the Zacks Consensus Estimate in the trailing four quarters, the average surprise being 2.85%.
Factors to Note
In the fourth quarter, DTE Energy’s service territories witnessed variable weather pattern. While some parts of its territories witnessed below normal temperatures, others observed quite a high precipitation level. This, in turn, is likely to have had a moderate impact on the company’s Q4 top line.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fourth-quarter revenues is pegged at $4.07 billion, indicating a 12.4% decline from the year-ago quarter.
The aforementioned revenue projections may have adversely impacted the company’s Q4 bottom line. Nevertheless, factors like accelerated deferred tax amortization as well as DTE’s efforts to reduce interest expenses and operation and maintenance costs might have benefited the company’s fourth-quarter bottom line.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fourth-quarter earnings is pegged at $1.64 per share, indicating an improvement of 16.2% from the prior-year reported figure.
