Trend in Estimate Revision

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company’s third-quarter earnings per share of 43 cents has witnessed no revisions in the past seven days. The estimated figure suggests an improvement of 72% from the prior-year number.

Factors to Consider

Per data provided by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (“EIA”), the average West Texas Intermediate crude prices in July, August and September were recorded at $101.62 per barrel, $93.67 per barrel and $84.26 per barrel, respectively. In comparison, in the year-ago respective months, average oil prices were reported at $72.49 per barrel, $67.73 per barrel and $71.65 per barrel, per the EIA’s data.

Higher oil price was favorable for the exploration and production activities of Permian Resources. Natural gas price was also healthier, thereby favoring PR’s exploration and production businesses. These are likely to have aided the company’s third-quarter performance.
