Read MoreHide Full Article
Exelon Corporation (EXC - Free Report) is scheduled to release fourth-quarter 2024 results on Feb. 12, before market open. The company delivered an earnings surprise of 5.97% in the last reported quarter.
See the Zacks Earnings Calendar to stay ahead of market-making news.
Let’s discuss the factors that are likely to be reflected in the upcoming quarterly results.
Key Factors That Might Have Impacted EXC's Q4 Performance
Exelon’s fourth-quarter earnings are expected to have continued to benefit from its reduction in volumetric risk, as nearly 76% of its distribution revenues are decoupled.
The company’s bottom line is expected to have benefited from its rate case activities. New electric and gas rates implemented during the previous quarters in EXC’s service regions should have contributed positively.
Earnings are expected to have benefited from ongoing energy efficiency programs and rising demand from data centers.
The bottom line is also expected to have gained from a large urban footprint in the densely-populated regions and cost-saving initiatives.
EXC’s Q4 Expectations
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings is pegged at 59 cents per share, indicating a year-over-year decrease of 1.7%.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pinned at $5.45 billion, implying a year-over-year improvement of 1.6%.
