Read MoreHide Full Article
Consolidated Water Co. Ltd. (CWCO - Free Report) is scheduled to release second-quarter 2023 results on Aug 11, before market open. The company delivered an earnings surprise of 30% in the last reported quarter.
Let’s discuss the factors that are likely to be reflected in the upcoming quarterly results.
Factors to Consider

The company’s earnings are likely to have benefited from increased tourist activity that might have boosted demand.
Consolidated Water’s diversified manufacturing base in terms of customer concentration and type of products, provides consistency in results and is likely to have benefited second-quarter earnings.
Q2 Expectations
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for second-quarter earnings is pegged at 22 cents per share, indicating a year-over-year increase of 22.2%.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pinned at $30.3 million, indicating a year-over-year improvement of 43.6%.
What the Zacks Model Unveils
Our proven model does not conclusively predict an earnings beat for Consolidated Water this time around. The combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), #2 (Buy) or #3 (Hold) increases the odds of an earnings beat. That is not the case here as you will see below.
