Southwestern Energy Company’s Q2 Preview
<p>RBC Capital analysts provided their views on <a href='https://financialmodelingprep.com/financial-summary/SWN'> Southwestern Energy Company (NYSE:SWN) </a> ahead of the upcoming Q2 earnings release, expecting strong operational performance, biasing production up from the midpoint. </p> 
<p>According to the analysts, the key investor debates are how active the company gets with stock buybacks given leverage reduction is also a priority, incremental shareholder return plans, appetite for large acquisitions specifically in the Haynesville, and the near-term hedge book overhang. </p>
<p>The analysts expect Q2 EPS/CFPS to be $0.27/$0.60, which is below the Street estimates of $0.35/$0.62. </p> <p>However, the analysts noted that other consensus models are not appropriately accounting for the company’s hedges, where they estimate a $1.6 billion loss (84% of oil and 93% of natural gas production hedged in Q2). </p>
