Exelon (EXC) to Report Q4 Earnings: Here's What to Expect

Exelon Corporation EXC is scheduled to release fourth-quarter 2022 financial results on Feb 14, before market open. The company had delivered an earnings surprise of 4.17% in the last reported quarter.

Let’s discuss the factors that are likely to be reflected in the upcoming quarterly results.

Factors to Consider

Exelon Corporation’s fourth-quarter earnings are likely to have benefited from the implementation of new rates at DPL Delaware Natural Gas Base Rate Case.

The company’ fourth-quarter earnings are likely to have gained from strong customer demand and decoupled distribution rates, which reduce volumetric risk.

Expectations

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fourth-quarter earnings is pegged at 43 cents per share, indicating a year-over-year decline of 52.22%.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fourth-quarter revenues is pegged at $4.52 billion, implying a year-over-year decline of 53.07%.

Quantitative Model Predicts

Our proven model does not conclusively predict an earnings beat for Exelon this time around. The combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) increases the odds of an earnings beat. That is not the case here as you will see below.
