Valero was the first to report earnings, so the best may be yet to come here. Here’s a look at what’s ahead.
Marathon Petroleum reports tomorrow and fourth-quarter EPS is forecast at $2.10 on revenues of $19.07 billion. The EPS estimate is up $0.46 in the past three months and the consensus price target on the shares is around $76.20. Shares are trading today at about $72.
Phillips 66 also reports tomorrow and fourth-quarter EPS is forecast at $1.68 on revenues of $46.03 billion. The estimate has risen by $0.10 in the past 90 days and the consensus price target on the stock is around $64.40. Shares are trading today at about $60.
Tesoro reports earnings on February 6th and EPS is estimated at $1.37 on revenues of $6.95 billion. The estimate has risen $0.15 a share in the past three months and the consensus price target is around $54.20. Shares are trading today at about $49.
HollyFrontier is scheduled to report on February 26th and the consensus estimate calls for EPS of $2.26 on revenues of $4.93 billion. The earnings estimate has grown by a whopping $0.74 in the past 90 days and the consensus price target on the stock is around $53.30. Shares are trading today at about $50.55.
Western Refining is scheduled to report earnings on February 28th and the consensus estimate calls for EPS of $1.37 on revenues of $$2.31 billion. The earnings estimate is up $0.30 in the past three months and the consensus price target is $34. Shares are trading today at nearly $32.
There are no big value plays here, but keep an eye on the price differential between WTI and Brent crudes, which has dropped below $16 a barrel. Most of these refiners benefit from a lower WTI price and a wider spread. But there’s still room for all of them to keep profits rolling in.
