Canadian Solar (CSIQ) to Report Q3 Earnings: What's in Store?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Canadian Solar Inc. (CSIQ - Free Report) is slated to report third-quarter 2023 results on Nov 14, before the opening bell.
In the last reported quarter, the company delivered an earnings surprise of 57.24%. The company has a trailing four-quarter average earnings surprise of 107.38%.
Factors to Note
Solid module shipment, backed by pent-up demand from customers across the world, is likely to have boosted Canadian Solar’s third-quarter top-line performance. Notable project sales that result in significant project monetization can also be expected to have contributed favorably to CSIQ’s revenues in the soon-to-be-reported quarter.
However, the sluggish demand scenario in the U.S. solar market lately (owing to higher interest rate environment) might have had some impact on the company’s revenues from the United States during the third quarter.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $1.99 billion, indicating a 3.2% increase from the year-ago quarter’s level.
Declining input costs, owing to lowering polysilicon prices, along with reducing logistic costs for the company, particularly in China, are likely to have favorably contributed to CSIQ’s third-quarter earnings.
However, lower average selling price for solar module is expected to have reduced Canadian Solar’s quarterly gross margin, thereby impacting its overall earnings in the soon-to-be-reported quarter. Also, share-based compensation expense in relation to the CSI Solar IPO is likely to have weighed on CSIQ’s bottom-line performance.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter earnings is pegged at 91 cents per share, indicating an 18.8% decline from the year-ago quarter’s figure.

Our proven model does not conclusively predict an earnings beat for Canadian Solar this time around. The combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) increases the chances of an earnings beat, which is not the case here.
