Wall Street will be looking for positivity from Phillips 66 as it approaches its next earnings report date. This is expected to be October 27, 2023. On that day, Phillips 66 is projected to report earnings of $4.72 per share, which would represent a year-over-year decline of 26.93%. Our most recent consensus estimate is calling for quarterly revenue of $34.17 billion, down 29.92% from the year-ago period.
For the full year, our Zacks Consensus Estimates are projecting earnings of $15.98 per share and revenue of $138.36 billion, which would represent changes of -14.95% and -21.26%, respectively, from the prior year.
It is also important to note the recent changes to analyst estimates for Phillips 66. Recent revisions tend to reflect the latest near-term business trends. As such, positive estimate revisions reflect analyst optimism about the company's business and profitability.
Research indicates that these estimate revisions are directly correlated with near-term share price momentum. To benefit from this, we have developed the Zacks Rank, a proprietary model which takes these estimate changes into account and provides an actionable rating system.
The Zacks Rank system, which ranges from #1 (Strong Buy) to #5 (Strong Sell), has an impressive outside-audited track record of outperformance, with #1 stocks generating an average annual return of +25% since 1988. Over the past month, the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate has moved 5.54% higher. Phillips 66 is holding a Zacks Rank of #3 (Hold) right now.
