Earnings Calendar
All 4Q15 earnings will be reported at this page; the link will be on the sidebar at the right, under "Earnings Central." When we start to see earnings reports for any quarter, the "Earnings Central" link is moved to the top of the sidebar until the earning season 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.
Much of this information is done in haste. I assume there are factual and typographical errors. It is for my personal use only. If this information is important to you, go to the source.
Comment:
- I assume this is the quarter that we will see a lot of write-downs, and a general "reset" for a lot of oil and gas companies, assuming most have weathered the worst, and are now geared for $30 oil for 2016.
- AAPL ($3.25): Apple, at $3.28 beat forecasts by a nickel, but overall, a negative report; iPhone sales slowing, iPads nosedive; huge beat in 3Q15: $1.96 vs $1.88 forecast; A year ago, AAPL crushed expectations, earning $3.06/share, 4Q14.
- AA (Alcoa) (4 cents), Oct 8: In 3Q15, the aluminum maker reported an adjusted quarterly profit of 7 cents a share, missing analysts 13 cents a share estimate. Revenue of $5.6 billion came in roughly in line with estimates. Adjusted profit during the quarter was down 77% from the same period last year. This quarter (4Q15) the company reports next Monday (after market close) and is forecast to report a paltry 4 cents in earnings. Results: meets / beats at 4 cents/share; Alcoa will split into two companies -- raw materials (Alcoa) and aerospace (yet to be named)
- BRK: in 3Q14, BRK's profit more than doubled over same quarter one year ago; BNSF reported a 12% increase; something tells me it won't be as rosy this time (4Q15)
- TSLA (10 cents): in 3Q15, the forecast was for a loss of 50 cents; AP story here; but the loss at 58 cents was much bigger than expected; deliveries were better than expected and TSLA surges 7% in after-hours trading; this time around, 4Q15, the company is expected to post earnings of 10 cents, and reports February 9. Whether it misses or beats that forecast, my hunch is that the shares move up or down significantly;
- LINE: forecast 14 cent/share profit; delayed; from Zacks today:
- Linn Energy, LLC (LINE) is coming out the gate Gang Busters style this Monday morning as stocks are up a staggering 91.00% as of 10:16 AM ET. Shares of LINE soared on this past Friday in response to energy prices rising.
- After seeing oil prices fall below $27 per barrel earlier this year, there has been a recent comeback, with oil going for $36.33 per barrel as of this past weekend, per an article from Seeking Alpha.

- NOG: press release.
- Barnes and Noble: better than expected;
- An uptick in print sales, driven in part by the success of adult coloring books, has bolstered the retailer’s expectations. Excluding sales related to its Nook device and e-book business, same-store sales were up 1.3% in the third quarter. And the company still expects sales on that basis to rise 1% for the full fiscal year, which ends April 30.
- Barnes & Noble said it expects to have closed eight stores by the end of fiscal 2016, the fewest since fiscal 2000 when it closed five locations. Barnes & Noble had previously forecast that it would close 13 stores this fiscal year.
- During a call with analysts, Ronald Boire, Barnes & Noble’s chief executive, said reducing Nook losses is the retailer’s priority. He said that while the company is committed to its digital customers, it is exploring all options. The retailer is currently winding down the sale of its Nook devices and e-books in the U.K.

- Net income for the quarter last year was positively impacted by a $57 million ($0.13 per diluted share) tax benefit in connection with a special cash dividend received by the Company 401(k) plan participants, and was negatively impacted by a $14 million ($0.03 per diluted share) tax charge relating to an ongoing income tax matter.

- CHK: On Wednesday, Colorado-based FourPoint Energy LLC announced it would take on some 3,500 Chesapeake wells in Oklahoma and Texas for a price tag of $385 million in a deal that sent Chesapeake’s stock up 23 percent. The asset sale will mean a full withdrawal of Chesapeake from the Western Anadarko Basin, but the market loves the idea. It’s a lifeline for Chesapeake, which has reported an annual loss of some $14.7 billion and needed a big savings win to get back in the game and keep bankruptcy fears at bay. In the fourth quarter, the company reported a $2.2 billion net loss. For FourPoint, it means it will now own all of Chesapeake’s Western Anadarko basin assets. Last July, the Colorado company moved to acquire $850 million in assets owned by two Chesapeake subsidiaries in Oklahoma. The new deal is expected to close by 29 April this year.

When Warren was buying PSX, refining margins were $1.00/US gallon of gasoline; recently, as low as 25 cents. That huge glut of gasoline is the reason no doubt; if the supply of gasoline rises much more, the Japanese will start giving it away for free.

*********************************
So, how did CSX do this quarter? The headline: CSX profit declines a piddly 5% but beats forecasts. But this is scary:
The results raise questions about the health of the overall economy because the Jacksonville, Florida-based railroad hauled less of most categories of freight in the quarter.
CSX said it earned $466 million, or 48 cents per share, in the last three months of 2015. That's down from $491 million, or 49 cents per share, a year ago.
That was better than the profit per share of 46 cents that the analysts surveyed by Zacks Investment Research expected.
I can't get too excited; considering how "bad" the US economy has been doing, I would say CSX did pretty well, considering.
