Q4 Earnings – Week 4
As we are in the middle of earnings season with US
companies doing well, it is going to be interesting to see how their European
counterparts will respond. Just by looking at underlying trends in revenue and
EBITDA growth we can see that after two years of negative growth we are back to
black numbers. For Europe, the picture is similar and European companies should
be able to turn negative in 2017. Likely the Q1 earnings should prove the
underlying trend.
BNP Paribas –
the financial landscape is changing in Europe and more and more bank are
becoming more optimistic about the future. All of that comes on the back of
lower loan provisions, loan growth and increased client trading activity, what
was clearly seen in in Q4 over and after US presidential elections. The banks
are desperate for higher interest rates to improve their profitable margins and
avoid painful cost cutting, layoffs or charging their client interest on
negative cash balances. The possibility of rising interest rates not only in US
but in EZ too, will have a positive effect on bank and pension manager share
prices.
General Motors
– readying to report top results
Rio Tinto – as
the global mining industry keeps recovering form the slump over the recent
years, the results of Rio Tinto will be closely watched by market participants.
There are many investors who do not fully realize how well diversified
activities the company has. For example, the revenue is split as follows:
42% iron ore
28% aluminium
13% copper
10% diamonds & minerals
7% energy
As the market is expecting a 100% rise in profits on y/y
basis, the revenue should be up 50% y/y, thus the company performance will
definitely be a good indicator of global growth.
Coca-Cola –
investors expect decline in profits as company is witnessing steady declines of
sales of its soda drinks despite diversifying away to vitamin or coconut
waters. It is not anything new, the trend is in place for quite some time.
Definitely, the stronger USD is not helping the profits either.
NVIDIA – seems
to be another fast-growing company as the market is expecting the 80% y/y rise
in profits and 50% rise in revenue. The company is thriving on strong trend
shifts within auto self-driving, virtual reality, data center and gaming.
Time Warner –
investors are eager to see better results coming from higher cable and box
office revenue. What will also be of interest is the ongoing acquisition from
AT&T and its impact on overall business.
Twitter – to report
better profits but market is curious about the plans to sell the company
