By

-- ソーシャルメディアプラットフォームのReddit(RDDT)の株価は、前四半期の業績が予想を上回ったことを受け、第2四半期の売上高見通しを上方修正したことから、金曜日の取引開始直後に急騰した。 同社は木曜遅く、今四半期の売上高を7億1500万ドルから7億2500万ドルと予想していると発表した。ガイダンスレンジの中間値である7億2000万ドルは、FactSetのアナリスト予想コンセンサスである7億1700万ドルを上回っている。株価は直近のプレマーケット取引で14%上昇した。 FactSetの議事録によると、ドリュー・ヴォレロ最高財務責任者(CFO)は決算説明会で、「(第2四半期の)売上高見通しは、(第1四半期を)終えた時点での事業の力強い成長と勢いを考慮に入れたものだ」と述べた。ヴォレロ氏によると、この見通しは前年同期の「特に力強い成長期が終わったこと」も考慮に入れているという。 3月31日締めの四半期決算において、Redditの純利益は前年同期の1株当たり0.13ドルから1.01ドルへと急増し、市場予想の0.57ドルを上回りました。売上高は69%増の6億6,340万ドルとなり、アナリスト予想平均の6億770万ドルを上回りました。 最高執行責任者(COO)のジェニファー・ウォン氏は電話会議で、「(第1四半期の)売上高の伸びは、インプレッション数と価格上昇の両方によって牽引されました。これは、当社のプラットフォームの規模と広告スタックへの投資を反映したものです」と述べました。「小売、消費財、テクノロジー、メディア・エンターテインメントといった主要な業種で好調な業績が見られ、プラットフォーム上のアクティブ広告主数は前年同期比で75%以上増加しました。」 ボレロ氏によると、広告収入はファネル全体にわたる広告需要の好調を背景に、74%増の6億2,500万ドルとなりました。米国と海外セグメントの売上高はそれぞれ67%増、76%増となりました。 同社の3月期における世界のデイリーアクティブユニークユーザー数は1億2,680万人で、前年同期の1億810万人から増加しました。市場予想は1億2,590万人でした。米国におけるデイリーアクティブユニークユーザー数は7%増の5,350万人、海外では26%増の7,330万人でした。 世界全体のユニークユーザー1人当たりの平均収益は44%増の5.23ドルとなりました。 スティーブ・ハフマン最高経営責任者(CEO)はアナリストとの電話会議で、「米国におけるデイリーユーザー数を最大手プラットフォームに匹敵する規模にまで拡大することに注力しています。目標は米国におけるデイリーユーザー数を1億人にすることであり、その実現に向けた戦略を積極的に実行しています」と述べました。

Exxon Q1 Hydrocarbons Output Rises YoY Despite Middle East Disruptions

Exxon Mobil (XOM) Friday reported a year-over-year increase in its Q1 oil and gas production, as higher output from the Americas more than offset supply disruptions in the Middle East.For the quarter ended March 31, the upstream segment's oil and gas output stood at 4.59 million barrels of oil equivalent per day, a rise from the previous year's 4.55 mboe/d but a decline from the prior quarter's 4.99 mboe/d.Net production of crude oil, natural gas liquids, bitumen, and synthetic oil was up year over year to 3.3 million barrels per day from 3.1 mmbbls/d, as higher output from the US, Canada and other American regions offset declines in Asia. Q1 output, however, was down versus the previous quarter's 3.5 mmbbls/d.Net natural gas production came in lower at 7.8 million cubic feet per day, relative to year-ago levels of 8.5 mcf/d, largely due to lower Asian output. Q1 production was also down versus Q4's 8.7 mcf/d.During the period, the company noted that Guyana achieved a record quarterly production of more than 900,000 gross barrels of oil per day, but the Middle East conflict negatively impacted overall output levels.Golden Pass LNG, a joint venture between QatarEnergy and ExxonMobil, achieved first production from Train 1 at the end of March, Exxon said, resulting in a 5% year-over-year increase in US exports.The company posted a decline in Q1 refinery throughput, primarily due to reduced processing in Europe and Asia. Throughput totaled 3.5 mmbbls/d in Q1, compared with 3.8 mmbls/d a year ago and 4.1 mmbbls/d a quarter earlier.Nonetheless, energy product sales grew year over year to 5.6 mmbbls/d from 5.3 mmbbls/d, as higher US sales more than offset a drop in non-US volumes. Except for heating oils, kerosene, and diesel, all other energy products logged corresponding sale increases.Q1 sales, however, were lower than Q4's 5.8 mmbbls/d, due to scheduled maintenance and Middle East disruptions, the company said.Chemical product sales totaled 5.4 million tons in Q1, up versus 4.8 mmt a year earlier, but down compared with the previous quarter's 5.7 mmt.Special product sales also grew to 1.98 mmt in Q1, versus 1.94 mmt in the prior year and 1.92 in the previous quarter, with high-value products achieving a record sales volume, according to the report.
