Let’s see how things are shaping up for this announcement.
What do the Estimates Say?
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter sales for Sociedad Quimica is currently pegged at $2,097.1 million, which suggests a decline of around 29.1% year over year.
Some Factors to Watch For
The company is likely to have gained from increased volumes in the Lithium and Derivatives segment the third quarter. Sociedad Quimica is seeing favorable trends in the lithium market underpinned by strong electric vehicle sales. This is likely to have supported lithium sales volumes in the quarter to be reported. However, this is likely to have been offset by weaker lithium prices in the quarter.
Iodine volumes are also expected to have been supported by growing demand. The company is expected to have gained from higher prices in the Iodine and Derivatives unit in the September quarter.
However, the sustained pressure on sales volumes in the Specialty Plant Nutrients segment is expected to have continued in the third quarter on weak demand. The pricing pressure is also likely to have continued in the potassium business.
