The company delivered a negative earnings surprise of 0.93% in the last reported quarter. AEE also holds a four-quarter average negative earnings surprise of 0.31%.
Let’s discuss the factors that are likely to be reflected in the upcoming quarterly results.
Factors to Consider Ahead of AEE’s Q2 Results
Ameren Corporation’s service territories witnessed an above-normal temperature pattern for the majority of the second quarter. This is likely to have boosted electricity demand from its consumers for cooling purposes this spring, which must have bolstered the company’s top-line performance.
Strong rate-based growth, increasing data center demand and a rising customer growth pipeline are likely to have added impetus to AEE’s revenues.
Also, Ameren’s second-quarter revenues are expected to have received a modest boost from the Missouri public service commission’s approval of $355 million in annual rate increases for the company, which took place in April.
Some parts of its service areas witnessed heavy rainfalls, floods, as well as several tornadoes, which are likely to have caused outages for some of AEE’s customers and might have damaged its infrastructure. This is expected to have pushed up the company’s operating expenses for repair and restoration of its damaged infrastructure, which may have hurt its bottom-line performance to some extent.
Nevertheless, solid revenue expectations, favorable contributions from strategic infrastructure investments in prior quarters and the company’s disciplined cost management efforts are likely to have bolstered overall earnings.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for AEE’s revenues is pegged at $1.88 billion, which indicates an increase of 10.9% from the year-ago number.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings stands at $1.01 per share, which calls for a rise of 4.1% from the prior-year quarter’s figure.
