Read MoreHide Full Article

Arch Resources (ARCH - Free Report) is scheduled to release third-quarter 2023 earnings on Oct 26, before market open. In the last quarter, this firm reported a negative earnings surprise of 30.6%.

Let’s see how things have shaped up before the upcoming earnings announcement.

Factors to Note

Arch Resources’ coking coal sales are expected to remain in line with the previous quarter despite a softer demand environment. However, challenges at the first Longwall district at its Leer South mine might have adversely impacted revenues in the short term.

The shipments from Arch Resources’ Powder River Basin operations are expected to have remained strong during the quarter.

Expectations

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter revenues and earnings per share is pegged at $608 million and $3.26, respectively. The bottom-line figure indicates a decrease of 62.4% from a year ago.
