TotalEnergies (NYSE:TTE) is set to report second-quarter 2022 earnings on Jul 28, before the opening bell. This company delivered an average earnings surprise of 21.86% in the last four reported quarters.
Let's focus on the factors that might have impacted its second-quarter performance.
Factors at Play
The second-quarter performance of TTE is likely to have benefited from contribution from start-ups and strong oil and gas prices.
TotalEnergies continued to strengthen the overall portfolio through acquisitions and monetization of non-core assets. Share repurchases during the first half of 2022 are likely to have had a positive impact on earnings. However, positive developments are expected to be marginally offset by gradual suspension of TotalEnergies' operation in Russia.
