What are analysts saying about Peabody Energy stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Peabody Energy stock:
- 1. FBR & Co analysts commented, "Peabody is expected to kick off earnings season for the U.S. coal sector on Wednesday, October 25. Our 3Q17 EBITDA estimate of $392M and EPS estimate of $1.56 both come in above consensus of EBITDA $366M and EPS $1.22, respectively. With this note we tweaked our estimates for recently released MSHA data, pointing to strong production in the PRB and ILB, but a miss in its Western mines. Overall, we expect a strong quarter from Peabody, driven by strengthening seaborne prices (especially on the thermal coal side) and the aforementioned robust domestic production. Needless to say, results should also improve from Q2 as weather-related disruptions receded. In the quarter, Peabody voluntarily repaid $300M in debt and modified its term loan to provide further capital allocation flexibility. We will be on the lookout for updates on restricted cash, Chapter 11 expenses, and restructuring expenses, all of which could push the cash position in various directions." (10/18/2017)

Consensus Ratings for Peabody Energy (NYSE:BTU) (How are Consensus Ratings Calculated?) MarketBeat calculates consensus ratings using the most recent rating from each brokerage that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Since brokers often use different ratings systems, each rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings. Each stock's consensus rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0-1.5 = Sell, 1.5-2.5 = Hold, 2.5-3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months.
MarketBeat will no longer include ratings and price target data in its consensus calculation if a broker drops coverage and MarketBeat has received a report that coverage was dropped. Ratings from certain research firms that issue ratings using purely quantitative methods (such as Zacks, Vetr and ValuEngine) are not included in consensus calculations. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.
