Earnings: 4Q12

4Q12 Earnings

Earnings Calendar

All 4Q12 earnings will be reported at this page; link will be on sidebar at the right, under "Earnings Central." When we start to see earnings reports for this quarter, I will move "Earnings Central" to the top of the sidebar until the earning seasons is over.

I don't have time to check/update earnings on all companies listed below. If you see one that I have missed, feel free to send it in (anonymous comment or by e-mail) and I will post it.

Comment: companies are starting to warn about 4Q12 earnings. First was SLB, then BHI.

EPS estimates in parentheses following the ticker symbol (according to Yahoo!Finance)

AXAS: Abraxas Petroleum chalked up revenue of $19.1 million. The seven analysts polled by S&P Capital IQ foresaw a top line of $18.2 million on the same basis. GAAP reported sales were 22% higher than the prior-year quarter's $15.6 million. EPS came in at -$0.03. The nine earnings estimates compiled by S&P Capital IQ predicted $0.00 per share. Non-GAAP EPS were -$0.03 for Q4 against -$0.12 per share for the prior-year quarter. GAAP EPS were -$0.13 for Q4 versus -$0.06 per share for the prior-year quarter.; earnings call; boe flat over past three years, but decrease in NG offset by increase in liquids (good news); looking for 5,000 boepd exit rate by end of 1Q13; Last year, we participated in 27 outside-operated Bakken Three Forks wells. And so far this year, we've participated in 11 more. Generally, no one represents a large capital commitment, but together they do. That's a planning and budgeting issue. We like to be in better control of our capital expenditure plus overall operations, so we've made the decision to sell most of our non-op Bakken interests. The frac on the Joy went off without a hitch and the well's been on production ever since except for some weather and minor workover shut-ins. The Raven 2H and 3H, we weren't so lucky. Both encountered downhaul mechanical issues that required remedial work that resulted in a significant settlement with our third-party service provider, I might add. The fracs were completed in February, and both wells have been on production since. We're not as happy with the frac on the 2H as we were with the 3H. But the 2H is producing on our type curve while the 3H is producing well above our type curve.
