Enbridge (ENB) to Report Q4 Earnings: What's in the Offing?

Enbridge Inc. ENB is set to report fourth-quarter 2022 results on Feb 10, before the opening bell.

In the last reported quarter, the leading North America energy infrastructure company’s adjusted earnings per share of 51 cents beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by a penny due to higher contributions from the Liquids Pipelines segment.

In the trailing four quarters, Enbridge beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings once and missed the same thrice, delivering a negative surprise of 4.1%, on average. This is depicted in the graph below:

Estimate Trend

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company’s fourth-quarter earnings per share of 56 cents has witnessed two upward revisions and one downward movement in the past 30 days. The figure suggests growth of 3.7% from the year-ago reported number.

Factors to Consider

In the December-end quarter, Enbridge is likely to have generated stable fee-based revenues as it is a leading midstream player in North America. It has a vast pipeline network responsible for transporting roughly 30% of the crude oil produced in the continent. With the favorable crude price scenario, exploration and production activities are expected to have ramped up in the fourth quarter. Thus, higher production is likely to have driven the demand for the company’s oil pipeline.
