MPLX Set to Report Q1 Earnings: Here's What You Need to Know
Read MoreHide Full Article
MPLX LP (MPLX - Free Report) is set to report first-quarter 2025 results on May 6, before the opening bell.
In the last reported quarter, its adjusted earnings of $1.07 per unit beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.04, primarily due to higher throughputs and increased contributions from the partnership’s newly acquired assets in the Utica and Permian Basins.
MPLX’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate twice in the trailing four quarters and missed twice, with the average surprise being 3.6%. This is depicted in the graph below:
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for first-quarter earnings per unit of $1.06 has witnessed no revisions in the past seven days. The estimated figure suggests an improvement of 8.2% from the prior-year reported number.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues of $3.2 billion indicates a 12.9% increase from the year-ago recorded figure.
Factors to Consider for MPLX
The business model of MPLX is relatively stable as its oil and gas pipeline assets are being used by shippers for the long term, making its operations less vulnerable to commodity price volatility. Thus, the partnership is likely to have generated stable cash flows in the March quarter, backed by its network of crude oil and refined product pipelines along with crude oil and natural gas gathering systems.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for adjusted EBITDA attributable to MPLX from the Logistics and Storage segment is pegged at $1,118.78 million, suggesting an increase from $1,098 million in the prior-year quarter.
