EOG Resources Poised to Report Q4 Earnings: Here's What You Need to Know
Read MoreHide Full Article
EOG Resources, Inc. (EOG - Free Report) is set to report fourth-quarter 2024 results on Feb. 27, after market close.
In the last reported quarter, its adjusted earnings of $2.89 per share beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2.73, primarily driven by higher production volumes.
Find the latest EPS estimates and surprises on Zacks Earnings Calendar.
Earnings surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in three of the trailing four quarters and missed the same in one, delivering an average surprise of 3.53%. This is depicted in the graph below:
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fourth-quarter earnings per share of $2.55 has witnessed no downward revision and four upward revisions in the past 30 days. The estimated figure suggests an improvement of 19.68% from the prior-year reported number.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues of $5.88 billion indicates a 7.5% decrease from the year-ago recorded figure.
Factors to Consider
EOG Resources is expected to have maintained a stable performance in the fourth quarter, supported by highly productive acreages in premier oil shale plays like the Permian and Eagle Ford. The company boasts numerous untapped high-quality drilling sites, which strengthen its production outlook and lower risk profile.
However, challenges likely arose due to the softening of natural gas prices. According to data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration, the Natural Gas Henry Hub Spot price declined almost 10.6% in the fourth quarter from the prior-year level, primarily due to increased natural gas production, milder weather conditions reducing heating demand and higher storage levels affecting global energy markets. Additionally, weaker LNG demand from Europe and Asia, coupled with increased renewable energy generation and coal switching, further pressured prices.
These factors are anticipated to have affected demand and pricing dynamics, potentially hampering EOG Resources’ quarterly performance.
