Read MoreHide Full Article
Sunoco LP (SUN - Free Report) is set to report third-quarter 2024 results on Nov. 6, before the opening bell.
In the last reported quarter, Sunoco’s earnings of $3.85 per share beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.79, driven by a boost in fuel sales and positive contributions from its NuStar acquisition.
Find the latest EPS estimates and surprises on Zacks Earnings Calendar.
The company beat on earnings in two of the trailing four quarters, met once and missed in the other, delivering an average surprise of 8.09%. This is depicted in the graph below:
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter earnings per share of $1.53 has witnessed one downward revision and no upward revision in the past 30 days. The estimated figure suggests a decline of 48.14% from the prior-year reported number.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues of $5.97 billion indicates a decline of 5.56% year over year.
Factors to Consider
Sunoco LP is a major fuel distributor across the United States. The partnership is anticipated to have sustained stable earnings in the third quarter, supported by its long-term fuel supply contracts and extensive fuel distribution network across North America. The demand for motor fuel is likely to have remained stable compared to the prior-year level. Our estimate for Sunoco’s total motor fuel gallons sold is pinned at 2,045 million compared with 2,124 million in the year-ago quarter.
Additionally, the partnership is expected to have generated stable revenues from its extensive pipeline network and 113 terminal and storage facilities, which came with the NuStar Energy L.P. acquisition. The pipeline business is least exposed to commodity price fluctuations and is known to generate stable earnings backed by long-term contracts.
These factors are anticipated to have influenced demand and pricing dynamics, potentially aiding Sunoco’s financial performance in the quarter.
