There are also earnings previews for select companies. Please check back often. This earnings calendar is updated weekly.Earnings Calendar Highlights MONDAY Earnings Spotlight: Oracle (ORCL, $47.23) – On the upside, Oracle has had an outperforming year. The downside is, it’s still a lackluster year of less than 2% returns year-to-date, edging out a weak Standard & Poor’s 500-stock index that’s slightly in the red this year. That limbo is perfectly reflected in an October Needham analyst note, that initiated the stock at “Hold.” Analyst Jack Andrews likes Oracle’s “potential and resources to become a significant force in next generation cloud computing environments,” but at the same time, he wants to see a “more consistent record of quarterly financial results meeting guidance.” Oracle’s next shot of showing that will come after the Dec. 17 closing bell. Wall Street is expecting a 1.1% decline in revenues to $9.53 billion, but an 11.4% improvement in profits to 78 cents per share.

The causes have been myriad: worries about a slowdown in economic growth, the retirement of FedEx Express CEO David Cunningham and worries about Amazon.com’s (AMZN) “Amazon Air” unit, which is hiring hundreds of people at Fort Worth’s Alliance Airport. But Credit Suisse recently gave investors a little – though not a lot of – relief when it maintained its “Outperform” rating (equivalent of buy) on FDX. Credit Suisse analyst Allison Landry acknowledges the numerous headwinds facing the stock, and did lower its price target from $307 to $263, but still sees a “tactical long opportunity” after the stark declines. The quarter to be reported after the Dec. 18 close should be decent, at least. Analysts see an 8.9% bump in revenues to $17.76 billion, fueling a 24.5% jump in earnings to $3.96 per share. Earnings Spotlight: Micron Technology (MU, $35.02) – Micron’s roughly 20% losses year-to-date are even worse than they look. Shares have been nearly halved from their May highs above $64 per share as pricing pressures plague DRAM and NAND memory. Citi analysts cited these issues recently in a note that maintained MU shares at “Neutral” and a $40 price target. Specifically, Citi expects DRAM price to fall 30% in 2019, and NAND pricing to fall 45%, with a potential bottom coming in the second quarter. Micron’s still expected to show plenty of growth in its quarterly results, due out after Tuesday’s closing bell. The analyst consensus is for an 18% pop in sales to $8.03 billion, pushing profits 20% higher to $2.94 per share.
