It doesn't matter your age or experience: taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals for all investors. Luckily, Zacks Premium offers several different ways to do both.
Featuring daily updates of the Zacks Rank and Zacks Industry Rank, full access to the Zacks #1 Rank List, Equity Research reports, and Premium stock screens, the research service can help you become a smarter, more self-assured investor.
Zacks Premium includes access to the Zacks Style Scores as well.
What are the Zacks Style Scores? The Zacks Style Scores is a unique set of guidelines that rates stocks based on three popular investing types, and were developed as complementary indicators for the Zacks Rank. This combination helps investors choose securities with the highest chances of beating the market over the next 30 days.
Based on their value, growth, and momentum characteristics, each stock is assigned a rating of A, B, C, D, or F. The better the score, the better chance the stock will outperform; an A is better than a B, a B is better than a C, and so on.
The Style Scores are broken down into four categories:
Value ScoreValue investors love finding good stocks at good prices, especially before the broader market catches on to a stock's true value. Utilizing ratios like P/E, PEG, Price/Sales, Price/Cash Flow, and many other multiples, the Value Style Score identifies the most attractive and most discounted stocks.
Growth ScoreGrowth investors are more concerned with a stock's future prospects, and the overall financial health and strength of a company. Thus, the Growth Style Score analyzes characteristics like projected and historic earnings, sales, and cash flow to find stocks that will see sustainable growth over time.
Momentum ScoreMomentum investors, who live by the saying "the trend is your friend," are most interested in taking advantage of upward or downward trends in a stock's price or earnings outlook. Utilizing one-week price change and the monthly percentage change in earnings estimates, among other factors, the Momentum Style Score can help determine favorable times to buy high-momentum stocks.
VGM ScoreIf you like to use all three kinds of investing, then the VGM Score is for you. It's a combination of all Style Scores, and is an important indicator to use with the Zacks Rank. The VGM Score rates each stock on their shared weighted styles, narrowing down the companies with the most attractive value, best growth forecast, and most promising momentum.
How Style Scores Work with the Zacks Rank A proprietary stock-rating model, the Zacks Rank utilizes the power of earnings estimate revisions, or changes to a company's earnings outlook, to help investors create a successful portfolio.
Investors can count on the Zacks Rank's success, with #1 (Strong Buy) stocks producing an unmatched +23.82% average annual return since 1988, more than double the S&P 500's performance. But the model rates a large number of stocks, and there are over 200 companies with a Strong Buy rank, plus another 600 with a #2 (Buy) rank, on any given day.
This totals more than 800 top-rated stocks, and it can be overwhelming to try and pick the best stocks for you and your portfolio.
That's where the Style Scores come in.
You want to make sure you're buying stocks with the highest likelihood of success, and to do that, you'll need to pick stocks with a Zacks Rank #1 or #2 that also have Style Scores of A or B. If you like a stock that only has a #3 (Hold) rank, it should also have Scores of A or B to guarantee as much upside potential as possible.
As mentioned above, the Scores are designed to work with the Zacks Rank, so any change to a company's earnings outlook should be a deciding factor when picking which stocks to buy.
Here's an example: a stock with a #4 (Sell) or #5 (Strong Sell) rating, even one with Style Scores of A and B, still has a downward-trending earnings outlook, and a bigger chance its share price will decrease too.
Thus, the more stocks you own with a #1 or #2 Rank and Scores of A or B, the better.
Stock to Watch: Chord Energy Corporation (CHRD - Free Report) Chord Energy Corporation was formed through the July 2022 merger of Oasis Petroleum and Whiting Petroleum. The company is an independent E&P operator focused on the Williston Basin, with operations across the Bakken and Three Forks formations. Chord’s strategy is to maintain production stability while generating free cash flow and returning capital to shareholders through a base dividend and share repurchases.
CHRD is a #2 (Buy) on the Zacks Rank, with a VGM Score of A.
Additionally, the company could be a top pick for growth investors. CHRD has a Growth Style Score of A, forecasting year-over-year earnings growth of 121.6% for the current fiscal year.
Three analysts revised their earnings estimate higher in the last 60 days for fiscal 2026, while the Zacks Consensus Estimate has increased $1.94 to $21.12 per share. CHRD also boasts an average earnings surprise of +11.7%.
With a solid Zacks Rank and top-tier Growth and VGM Style Scores, CHRD should be on investors' short list.

Chord Energy prodá veškerá aktiva v Marcellusu za 550 milionů USD a soustředí se výhradně na Williston Basin. Transakce má snížit čisté zadlužení a roční kapitálové výdaje asi o 25 milionů USD.
Key Takeaways Chord Energy will sell its entire Marcellus position for $550M, focusing solely on the Williston Basin.The deal is expected to lower Chord Energy's net leverage and annual capital spending by approximately $25M.CHRD's oil weighting rises 4-5 percentage points, while gas realizations may decline 16-30% after the sale. Chord Energy Corporation’s (CHRD - Free Report) latest portfolio move strengthens the investment profile by simplifying operations, improving financial flexibility and refocusing on its core Williston Basin assets.
The company has agreed to sell its entire non-operated Marcellus position to POSCO International for $550 million, with closing expected in the fourth quarter of 2026.
More Focused and Cleaner PortfolioThe divestiture removes about 32,000 net Marcellus acres and roughly 121 million cubic feet per day of trailing 12-month production. After closing, Chord Energy’s portfolio will be focused exclusively on the Williston Basin.
Management believes its scale, inventory depth and operating position there support continued value creation. This results in a more streamlined operating footprint.
Balance Sheet Gets Another BoostThe transaction is expected to reduce CHRD’s net leverage further and keep it well below peer levels. Chord Energy received a $55 million deposit, with the remaining consideration payable at closing.
A stronger balance sheet gives the company more room to navigate commodity-price volatility while maintaining its disciplined capital allocation approach.
Higher Oil Weighting Reshapes the Production MixOn a pro forma basis, Chord Energy’s oil weighting is expected to increase about 4-5 percentage points following the Marcellus divestiture, sharpening its exposure to the Williston Basin. The shift comes with a trade-off.
As the Marcellus assets generate stronger gas realizations, companywide gas realizations are expected to decline about 16-30% after the sale. The transaction leaves CHRD with a more oil-focused production mix centered on its core Williston operations.
Per-Unit Costs Present a Mixed PictureHigher Williston oil weighting is expected to raise lease operating expenses by approximately 70-80 cents per barrel of oil equivalent (Boe). Production taxes are projected to increase 0.15-0.45% of oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas sales.
In contrast, cash gathering, processing and transportation costs are expected to fall 20-25 cents per Boe, while annual capital expenditures decline approximately $25 million.
Capital Allocation Remains CentralChord Energy plans to deploy the sale proceeds over time in line with its disciplined capital allocation framework. The company described the transaction as highly accretive across key metrics, with the $550 million value representing about six times adjusted EBITDA, based on $3.50 per million British thermal unit Henry Hub price assumption.
Why the Deal Matters for InvestorsThe key benefit is greater strategic clarity, which is expected to enhance investor appeal. CHRD is exiting a non-core, non-operated gas position and concentrating capital on the Williston Basin, where it has greater scale and operational control. Lower leverage, reduced annual capital spending and a more oil-weighted production mix are expected to improve financial flexibility and operating efficiency.
Together, these benefits are expected to strengthen Chord Energy’s business model, support value creation from its Williston Basin inventory and boost cash-flow generation over time.
CHRD’s Zacks Rank & Key PicksChord Energy currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).
The transaction is expected to sharpen CHRD’s focus on the Williston Basin and increase the oil weighting, giving it greater exposure to the prevailing strength in crude prices. Investors may consider other energy companies positioned to benefit from sustained upstream activity.
With West Texas Intermediate crude oil trading above the $100-per-barrel mark, according to Oilprice.com, elevated oil prices can support drilling and production activity across the upstream space. Higher activity levels generally translate into stronger demand for oilfield equipment, drilling technologies and offshore services.
Against this backdrop, investors may consider Baker Hughes Company (BKR - Free Report) , Oceaneering International, Inc. (OII - Free Report) and Drilling Tools International Corporation (DTI - Free Report) . These companies provide equipment, technologies and services to upstream operators and are positioned to benefit from increased drilling activity and offshore spending.
BKR and DTI currently sport a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) each, while OII carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks Rank #1 stocks here.
Investors looking beyond CHRD may therefore consider these higher-ranked energy stocks while monitoring how its more focused Williston Basin portfolio and higher oil exposure translate into operating performance and cash-flow generation.
Chord Energy prodá celý svůj neprovozovaný podíl v Marcellusu společnosti POSCO International za 550 mil. USD. Po uzavření transakce se zaměří výhradně na Williston Basin.

"The divestiture of our non-operated Marcellus position builds on Chord's multi-year track record of disciplined capital allocation and portfolio optimization," said Danny Brown, Chord Energy's Chief Executive Officer. "Following the close of the Enerplus transaction in May 2024, Chord identified its non-operated Marcellus position as non-core. Since then, we have benefited from the Marcellus' significant free cash flow generation and are pleased to bring substantial value forward through the divestiture announced today. This highly accretive transaction allows us to further strengthen our peer-leading balance sheet and focus on creating significant value from our world-class Williston Basin position. Chord's disciplined capital allocation, operational efficiency, and financial strength position us to create value while navigating a volatile macro environment."
Chord expects to update guidance in conjunction with its 3Q26 earnings release in November. On a pro forma basis, Chord expects the following impacts to its post-divestiture key metrics:
Oil weighting would increase by approximately 4 to 5 percentage points; Given stronger gas realizations in the Marcellus, gas realizations would decrease by approximately 16 to 30 percentage points; Due to higher oil weighting in the Williston Basin, LOE would increase by approximately 70 to 80 cents per Boe; Cash GPT3 would decrease by 20 to 25 cents per Boe; Production taxes would increase by approximately 0.15% to 0.45% of oil, NGL, and natural gas sales; and CapEx would decrease by approximately $25MM annually.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, Net Leverage and Cash GPT included in this press release, are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and are used by management and external users of the Company's financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful supplemental measures that provide an indication of the results generated by the Company's principal business activities. However, these measures are not recognized by GAAP and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP. Therefore, these measures may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other issuers. From time to time, the Company provides forward-looking forecasts of these measures; however, the Company is unable to provide a quantitative reconciliation of the forward-looking non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measures because management cannot reliably quantify certain of the necessary components of such forward-looking GAAP measures. The reconciling items in future periods could be significant. To see how the Company reconciles its historical presentations of its non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, please visit the Investors—Documents & Disclosures—Non-GAAP Reconciliation page on the Company's website at https://ir.chordenergy.com/non-gaap.

Chord Energy (CHRD) ve 2. čtvrtletí zvýšila upravený zisk na akcii o 259,8 % na 6,44 USD a tržby o 57,2 % na zhruba 1,5 mld. USD. Volný peněžní tok vzrostl na 413 mil. USD.
Key Takeaways Chord's Q2 2026 earnings increased 259.8% as revenue rose 57.2% and oil production increased 5.6%. Chord generated $413M in adjusted free cash flow and returned $220M to shareholders in Q2. Chord faces commodity exposure as 2027 hedges cover only about 18% of oil volumes. Chord Energy Corporation (CHRD - Free Report) shares have climbed 14.1% in the past month, putting the stock’s recent momentum in focus. The key question is whether better operating performance and cash generation can keep supporting the move.
The latest quarter provided meaningful fundamental backing, but commodity exposure, higher operating costs and still-developing long-lateral economics leave reasons for caution.
CHRD’s Q2 Results Add Fundamental SupportChord reported second-quarter 2026 adjusted earnings of $6.44 per share, up 259.8% from $1.79 a year earlier. Revenues increased 57.2% to roughly $1.5 billion from $950.3 million.
The top line beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 4.2%, while earnings missed the consensus mark by 3.6%. That combination points to a substantially improved year-over-year earnings picture, though not an across-the-board beat.
Chord’s Oil Production Keeps Moving HigherOil production reached 165.4 thousand barrels per day, up 5.6% from the prior-year quarter, while total production was 286.4 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day. Oil also represented 57.8% of total production.
Realizations added support. Chord’s average oil sales price excluding realized derivatives increased 52.5% to $93.99 per barrel, while the average NGL sales price rose 59.5% to $9.25 per barrel. Those improvements may have helped investor sentiment, but they do not establish the direct cause of the recent share-price gain.
CHRD’s Williston Scale Drives Operating EfficiencyChord is leveraging its scale in the Williston Basin to lift production while operating with fewer rigs and completion crews. The company expects fiscal 2026 oil production of 161 MBopd, up 14% from the pro-forma fiscal 2022 level of 141.5 MBopd, even as drilling rigs decline about 25% and completion crews fall roughly 21%. Chord also continues to expand its long-lateral development strategy, with about 80% of its year-end 2025 inventory supporting 3-mile or 4-mile laterals. Management believes these longer laterals can lower breakevens and improve capital efficiency, providing another potential support for free cash flow. Still, the benefits depend on sustained execution as the 4-mile program becomes a larger part of the development mix.

Chord’s Free Cash Flow Strengthens the Bull CaseAdjusted free cash flow rose to about $413 million from roughly $141 million a year earlier, while net cash provided by operating activities reached $1.12 billion. Chord returned $220 million to shareholders in the quarter through its base dividend and share repurchases.
Liquidity also provides flexibility. Chord ended June with $611.6 million of cash and no revolver borrowings, while its revolving credit facility had $2 billion of elected commitments. Management expects to return at least 75% of adjusted free cash flow beginning in the third quarter, subject to its leverage framework.
CHRD Still Faces Commodity and Cost RisksThe biggest counterweight is commodity sensitivity. About 38% of second-half 2026 oil volumes were hedged, while only about 18% of 2027 volumes had protection, leaving much of future production exposed to oil-price swings.
Costs and execution deserve attention as well. Chord raised its 2026 lease operating expense midpoint to $10.30 per barrel of oil equivalent as production-enhancement activity and workover costs increased. Early 4-mile well performance is in line with expectations, but mature production history is still insufficient to fully validate the economics of the fourth mile.
For sector context, Diamondback Energy (FANG - Free Report) , a Permian-focused producer, averaged 525 thousand barrels of oil per day in the second quarter of 2026. Devon Energy Corporation (DVN - Free Report) offers a more diversified multi-basin portfolio, giving investors another operating model against which to consider Chord’s Williston concentration.
Chord’s Earnings Outlook Shows Near-Term StrengthThe Zacks Consensus Estimate calls for CHRD to post earnings of $3.76 per share in the current quarter, implying 60% growth. For the December quarter, the consensus mark is pegged at $3.63 per share, representing an estimated 183.6% increase from the year-ago period. Current-year earnings are projected at $18.03 per share, up 89.2% from $9.53 a year earlier. However, the outlook weakens for 2027, with the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $11.61 per share implying a 35.6% decline. That expected pullback could temper enthusiasm around CHRD’s recent share-price momentum.

CHRD’s Signals Temper the Recent MomentumThe recent rally has stronger operating and cash-flow support than it did before the quarter, but commodity exposure, rising costs and execution uncertainty keep the setup from being one-sided. Those risks matter more as the stock extends its short-term gains.
CHRD currently carries a Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell), which signals near-term caution.
You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.
At the same time, it has a Value Score of A, Growth Score of A, Momentum Score of A and a VGM Score of A. The Style Scores highlight favorable characteristics across those investment styles, but they are designed to complement the Zacks Rank rather than override it. That contrast argues for keeping the recent momentum in perspective.

Oil Could Dip, But These 3 Energy Stocks Still Look Built to WinChord Energy NASDAQ: CHRD reported second-quarter 2026 adjusted free cash flow of $414 million, with oil production at the high end of its guidance range and adjusted capital spending modestly below the midpoint of guidance, President and CEO Danny Brown said during the company’s earnings call.
The company returned $220 million to shareholders during the quarter through its base dividend and share repurchases, representing 54% of adjusted free cash flow. Brown said Chord’s balance sheet had grown to $612 million and normalized leverage had declined below one-half turn at quarter-end.
Get Chord Energy alerts:
As a result, Chord expects to return at least 75% of adjusted free cash flow to shareholders beginning in the third quarter. Brown said the company expects that payout level to continue through the third and fourth quarters, subject to changes in leverage.
Production and Capital Outlook Chord maintained its full-year 2026 oil-production outlook of 161,000 barrels per day, which is 2,000 barrels per day above its original outlook. Brown attributed the increase largely to investments in low-cost, short-cycle opportunities within the company’s base production.
The company’s overall capital outlook was “essentially unchanged,” though spending is expected to decline materially in the third quarter after Chord dropped its second frac crew in July. Brown said spending is expected to decrease again in the fourth quarter.
Chord raised its full-year lease operating expense outlook to $10.30 per barrel of oil equivalent. The increase reflects expanded production-enhancement initiatives, higher workover costs than initially expected and somewhat higher non-operated lease operating expense.
Brown said the company is willing to incur incremental operating costs where it sees opportunities to generate strong risk-adjusted future cash flow. Those efforts include workovers, efforts to reduce downtime, chemical treatments, surface de-bottlenecking and artificial-lift optimization.
Base Production Optimization Efforts Chord has expanded testing of chemical treatments across a larger population of wells after seeing encouraging initial results, according to Brown. The company is testing multiple treatment types and is currently assuming only limited volume upside from the initiative while it evaluates effectiveness, economics and the potential for broader deployment.
Brown said Chord needs more production history before incorporating a larger contribution from the chemical program into its outlook. The company is using selection criteria to identify wells that may be the best candidates for particular treatments, while monitoring results to determine whether performance can be replicated.
Chief Operating Officer Darrin Henke said some of the work includes lowering pumps and has resulted in improved productivity. He added that the company has arrested production declines across a meaningful portion of its wells through several optimization initiatives.
Brown also highlighted Chord’s use of artificial intelligence to optimize rod-pump operations across much of its field. The technology is intended to improve pump loading, reduce equipment wear and support production. Chord is also using computer-based scheduling to allocate workover rigs across its more than 5,000 wells in the basin, considering factors such as production volumes, repair costs, parts availability and the proximity of wells.
Longer Laterals and Completion Efficiency Chord continued to advance its longer-lateral drilling program, turning in line four additional four-mile pads since its May update. The company has now executed 26 four-mile wells in total and remains on track to scale the program through the second half of 2026 and into 2027.
Brown said early execution and performance from the four-mile wells were in line with expectations, though the company needs more time to assess the full contribution from the fourth mile of lateral length. The company is using tracers on four-mile wells and has observed tracer returns from toe stages at the surface, Henke said, indicating that those stages are contributing.
Chord also completed what Henke described as the Bakken basin’s first trimulfrac. The company is evaluating trimulfrac and remote-fracking opportunities for 2027, with Henke estimating that trimulfrac could represent roughly 20% to 50% of next year’s program, depending on operational conditions.
The company said faster frac cycle times accelerated some activity into the first half of the year, increasing first-half production while reducing expected second-half volumes relative to its initial outlook. Chord also cited reduced facilities-related capital from equipment reuse and scalable facility design.
Commodity Differentials and Hedging Chord updated its differential and realization outlook to reflect market conditions. Bakken crude traded at premiums to West Texas Intermediate during the second quarter, which management attributed to unusual market conditions, including a sharp oil-price increase and backwardation in the commodity curve.
Michael Lou, Chord’s chief strategy officer and chief commercial officer, said Bakken crude has historically traded in a range from about $2 per barrel below WTI to $2 per barrel above it. Chord expects its net premium to fade through the remainder of 2026 and is guiding to pricing slightly below WTI, which Lou characterized as still strong basin differentials.
Chord also added hedges for the next several years. The company has approximately 38% of its second-half 2026 oil volumes hedged and about 18% of 2027 oil volumes hedged.
Brown said the company remains focused on disciplined capital allocation and continuous operational improvement amid uncertainty around oil prices and commodity-market volatility.

Chord Energy Corporation (CHRD - Free Report) came out with quarterly earnings of $6.44 per share, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $6.68 per share. This compares to earnings of $1.79 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.
This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of -3.59%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this company would post earnings of $3.35 per share when it actually produced earnings of $4.56, delivering a surprise of +36.12%.
Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates three times.
Chord Energy Corporation, which belongs to the Zacks Oil and Gas - Exploration and Production - United States industry, posted revenues of $1.49 billion for the quarter ended June 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 4.76%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $1.18 billion. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates three times over the last four quarters.
The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.
Chord Energy Corporation shares have added about 47.7% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 13%.
What's Next for Chord Energy Corporation?While Chord Energy Corporation has outperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?
There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.
Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.
Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Chord Energy Corporation was unfavorable. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to underperform the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.
It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $3.71 on $1.17 billion in revenues for the coming quarter and $18.32 on $4.86 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.
Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Oil and Gas - Exploration and Production - United States is currently in the bottom 13% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.
One other stock from the same industry, Northern Oil and Gas (NOG - Free Report) , is yet to report results for the quarter ended June 2026. The results are expected to be released on August 6.
This independent oil and gas company is expected to post quarterly earnings of $1.02 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -25.6%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 3.2% higher over the last 30 days to the current level.
Northern Oil and Gas' revenues are expected to be $545.76 million, down 5% from the year-ago quarter.
Chord Energy Corporation (CHRD - Free Report) is expected to deliver a year-over-year increase in earnings on higher revenues when it reports results for the quarter ended June 2026. This widely-known consensus outlook gives a good sense of the company's earnings picture, but how the actual results compare to these estimates is a powerful factor that could impact its near-term stock price.
The earnings report, which is expected to be released on August 5, might help the stock move higher if these key numbers are better than expectations. On the other hand, if they miss, the stock may move lower.
While management's discussion of business conditions on the earnings call will mostly determine the sustainability of the immediate price change and future earnings expectations, it's worth having a handicapping insight into the odds of a positive EPS surprise.
Zacks Consensus EstimateThis company is expected to post quarterly earnings of $6.68 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +273.2%.
Revenues are expected to be $1.43 billion, up 20.8% from the year-ago quarter.
Estimate Revisions TrendThe consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 20.68% lower over the last 30 days to the current level. This is essentially a reflection of how the covering analysts have collectively reassessed their initial estimates over this period.
Investors should keep in mind that an aggregate change may not always reflect the direction of estimate revisions by each of the covering analysts.
Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise
Earnings WhisperEstimate revisions ahead of a company's earnings release offer clues to the business conditions for the period whose results are coming out. This insight is at the core of our proprietary surprise prediction model -- the Zacks Earnings ESP (Expected Surprise Prediction).
The Zacks Earnings ESP compares the Most Accurate Estimate to the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the quarter; the Most Accurate Estimate is a more recent version of the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate. The idea here is that analysts revising their estimates right before an earnings release have the latest information, which could potentially be more accurate than what they and others contributing to the consensus had predicted earlier.
Thus, a positive or negative Earnings ESP reading theoretically indicates the likely deviation of the actual earnings from the consensus estimate. However, the model's predictive power is significant for positive ESP readings only.
A positive Earnings ESP is a strong predictor of an earnings beat, particularly when combined with a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold). Our research shows that stocks with this combination produce a positive surprise nearly 70% of the time, and a solid Zacks Rank actually increases the predictive power of Earnings ESP.
Please note that a negative Earnings ESP reading is not indicative of an earnings miss. Our research shows that it is difficult to predict an earnings beat with any degree of confidence for stocks with negative Earnings ESP readings and/or Zacks Rank of 4 (Sell) or 5 (Strong Sell).
How Have the Numbers Shaped Up for Chord Energy Corporation?For Chord Energy Corporation, the Most Accurate Estimate is the same as the Zacks Consensus Estimate, suggesting that there are no recent analyst views which differ from what have been considered to derive the consensus estimate. This has resulted in an Earnings ESP of 0%.
On the other hand, the stock currently carries a Zacks Rank of #4.
So, this combination makes it difficult to conclusively predict that Chord Energy Corporation will beat the consensus EPS estimate.
Does Earnings Surprise History Hold Any Clue?While calculating estimates for a company's future earnings, analysts often consider to what extent it has been able to match past consensus estimates. So, it's worth taking a look at the surprise history for gauging its influence on the upcoming number.
For the last reported quarter, it was expected that Chord Energy Corporation would post earnings of $3.35 per share when it actually produced earnings of $4.56, delivering a surprise of +36.12%.
Over the last four quarters, the company has beaten consensus EPS estimates three times.
Bottom LineAn earnings beat or miss may not be the sole basis for a stock moving higher or lower. Many stocks end up losing ground despite an earnings beat due to other factors that disappoint investors. Similarly, unforeseen catalysts help a number of stocks gain despite an earnings miss.
That said, betting on stocks that are expected to beat earnings expectations does increase the odds of success. This is why it's worth checking a company's Earnings ESP and Zacks Rank ahead of its quarterly release. Make sure to utilize our Earnings ESP Filter to uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they've reported.
Chord Energy Corporation doesn't appear a compelling earnings-beat candidate. However, investors should pay attention to other factors too for betting on this stock or staying away from it ahead of its earnings release.
Expected Results of an Industry PlayerW&T Offshore (WTI - Free Report) , another stock in the Zacks Oil and Gas - Exploration and Production - United States industry, is expected to report loss per share of $0 for the quarter ended June 2026. This estimate points to a year-over-year change of +100%. Revenues for the quarter are expected to be $151.55 million, up 23.9% from the year-ago quarter.
The consensus EPS estimate for W&T has been revised 12.5% lower over the last 30 days to the current level. However, a higher Most Accurate Estimate has resulted in an Earnings ESP of +633.32%.
When combined with a Zacks Rank of #3 (Hold), this Earnings ESP indicates that W&T will most likely beat the consensus EPS estimate. Over the last four quarters, the company surpassed consensus EPS estimates two times.
