24/7 Wall St. has put together a preview of some of the major companies reporting their quarterly results this week. We have included the consensus earnings estimates from Thomson Reuters and the stock price and trading history, as well as added some additional color on each.

Be advised that the earnings and revenue estimates may change ahead of the formal reports, and some companies may change reporting dates as well.

FuelCell Energy

FuelCell Energy Inc. (NASDAQ: FCEL) will share its most recent quarterly results on Monday. The consensus estimates call for a net loss of $0.28 per share and $44.63 million in revenue. This company designs and operates stationary fuel cell power plants for distributed power generation. It is also involved in the development, design, production and sale of fuel cell products under the Direct FuelCell name.

Shares were trading at $6.48 at the close on Friday, in a 52-week trading range of $6.12 to $21.12. The stock has a consensus analyst price target of $29.50.


FedEx

FedEx Corp. (NYSE: FDX) is scheduled to reveal its fiscal second-quarter results on Wednesday. The consensus estimates call for $2.53 in earnings per share (EPS), as well as $12.46 billion in revenue. The company provides transportation, e-commerce and business services in the United States and internationally. Its FedEx Express segment provides various shipping services for the delivery of packages and freight. The FedEx Ground segment provides business and residential money-back guaranteed ground package delivery services, as well as consolidates and delivers high volumes of low-weight and less time-sensitive business-to-consumer packages.

Oracle

Oracle Corp. (NYSE: ORCL) is expected to report its fiscal second-quarter results on Wednesday. The analysts’ consensus estimates call for EPS of $0.60 and $9.06 billion in revenue. This old-school large cap tech stock is very reasonable valuation-wise, but it turned in earnings for the previous quarter that missed Wall Street estimates again.
