Earnings calendar highlights

Monday (4/22)

Tuesday (4/23)

Earnings spotlight: Tesla

Tesla (TSLA) has had a rough go of it on the price charts in 2024, with shares of the electric vehicle (EV) maker down roughly 40% as of this writing. This makes TSLA the worst-performing Magnificent 7 stock by a country mile.

Much has been said about the headwinds Tesla is facing, including decreased demand for EVs, major layoffs to its global workforce and several price cuts to its vehicles that have cut into margins. The situation appears to be so dire that Wedbush analyst Daniel Ives (Outperform, the equivalent of a Buy) says the company's first-quarter earnings report, due out after Tuesday's close, will mark "a moment of truth" for Tesla.

While the company has endured rough stretches before, "this time is clearly a bit different as for the first time many long-time Tesla believers are giving up on the story and throwing in the white towel," Ives says. This makes TSLA's post-earnings conference call and the messaging it delivers "one of the most important moments" in its history. "If Musk is flippant again and there is no adult in the room on this conference call with no answers then darker days are ahead," Ives adds.

As for Tesla's Q1 results, analysts, on average, expect the company to report earnings of 51 cents per share, down 40% year-over-year (YoY), on revenue of $22.3 billion (+11.5% YoY).

Wednesday (4/24)

Earnings spotlight: Meta Platforms

BofA Securities analyst Justin Post is bullish on Meta Platforms (META) ahead of the Facebook parent's first-quarter earnings report, slated for release after Wednesday's close. The analyst says positives from the quarter could include commentary on the company's growing artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities and the benefits of AI capital expenditures spending. 

Post expects the report to show a strong digital ad environment in Q1, which will help Meta report revenue at the top end of the company's guidance of $34.5 billion to $37 billion.

Industry analysts, meanwhile, expect Meta Platforms to disclose first-quarter revenue of $36.1 billion (+26.1% YoY). Earnings are expected to land at $4.31 per share, nearly double what the company reported this time last year.

Thursday (4/25)

Earnings spotlight: Microsoft

Microsoft (MSFT) is one of several blue chip stocks on the earnings calendar, with the software giant's fiscal third-quarter earnings report due after Thursday's close. Analysts, on average, expect earnings of $2.82 per share (+15.1% YoY) on revenue of $60.8 billion (+14.9% YoY). 

The Street's estimates "appear to be in a good place," says UBS Global Research analyst Karl Keirstead, adding that recent data checks show that cloud infrastructure spending is stable and a modest top-line beat is likely. The analyst also notes that data shows increased AI spending and "consistent feedback that large enterprise interest in AI projects is ramping." 

Keirstead has a Buy rating on the Dow Jones stock and he's in good company with his bullish outlook. Of the 57 analysts covering Microsoft surveyed by S&P Global Market Intelligence, 42 say it's a Strong Buy, 12 have it at Buy and three rate it a Hold. This works out to a consensus Strong Buy recommendation.
