STOCKS EXTEND GAINS AS RESULTS SEASON KICKS INTO HIGH GEAR

Tech-focused investors prepare for fresh wave of earnings highlighted by struggling Tesla

PNM Resources' (PNM) Q2 Earnings In Line Y/Y, Revenues Rise

Zacks Equity Research
·2 min read

PNM Resources PNM reported second-quarter 2021 earnings of 55 cents per share, inline with the prior-year quarter’s figure.

GAAP earnings for the quarter were 62 cents per share, down 13.9% from the prior-year quarter’s reading of 72 cents.

Results reflect recovery and improvement from last year's COVID-related load decline, offset by the impact of additional shares.

Total Revenues

Total electric operating revenues for the second quarter were $426.5 million, up 19.3% from $357.6 million in the comparable period of 2020.

Highlights of the Release

Total operating expenses for the quarter under review summed $352.3 million, up 23% from $286.5 million in the comparable period of 2020.

Operating income for the quarter was $74.2 million, up 4.3% from $71.2 million in the second quarter of 2020.

In May, the company’s merger with Avangrid received an approval for a unanimous stipulation on the transaction from The Public Utility Commission of Texas. The deal is on track to be closed in the second half of 2021.

Guidance

The company reaffirmed its 2021 earnings per share outlook in the range of $2.27-$2.37 with an expectation to attain the upper end. The Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2.31 is slightly lower than the midpoint of the range.

It is focused on strengthening its infrastructure and plans to invest $3.98 billion in the 2021-2025 time period.
