What's in Store for NextEra Energy Partners (NEP) Q2 Earnings?
NextEra Energy Partners, LP NEP is scheduled to release second-quarter 2020 earnings on Jul 24, before market open. The partnership witnessed a negative earnings surprise of 1310.71% in the last reported quarter.
Let’s focus on the factors that might have impacted the firm’s earnings in the second quarter.
Factors to Consider
NextEra Energy Partners is well positioned to execute its long-term strategic objectives, courtesy of its strong financial position. The existing high-quality asset portfolio of the firm and that more than 15 years are remaining of the contract life of its clean energy projects assure stable long-term cash flow for the firm. Second-quarter results are expected to reflect these upsides.
However, the unprecedented economic crisis and a lockdown on business activities during the to-be-reported quarter might have adversely impacted the firm’s earnings.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for second-quarter 2020 earnings and revenues is pegged at 55 cents per unit and $332.81 million, respectively. The top- and the bottom-line figures indicate a respective rise of 51.97% and 212.24% from the year-ago quarter’s reported numbers.
