CONSOL Coal (CCR) Earnings & Revenues Miss Estimates in Q1
CONSOL Coal Resources LP’s first-quarter 2020 operating earnings of a penny per unit missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 7 cents by 85.7%. The bottom line also declined from the prior-year quarter’s earnings of 54 cents.
Revenues
Revenues of $67.3 million lagged the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $71 million by 5.5%. Total revenues also declined 21.7% from $86.1 million recorded in the year-ago quarter. The year-over-year decline was caused by lower contribution from its segments.
Highlights of the Release
CONSOL Coal’s first-quarter production amounted to 1.5 million tons, lower than 1.7 million in the year-ago quarter. The downside was due to reduced customer demand and a longwall move at Harvey mine.
Total costs in first-quarter 2019 were $62.7 million, down 11.5% from $70.9 million in the year-ago quarter.

The Hottest Tech Mega-Trend of All
Last year, it generated $24 billion in global revenues. By 2020, it's predicted to blast through the roof to $77.6 billion.
