NEGATIVE IMPACT
American States Water reported lower than expected Q4 earnings and a decrease in revenue, continuing a trend of missing EPS estimates.
Given AWR's history of share price decline following earnings misses, the Q4 earnings miss and revenue decrease are likely to negatively impact the stock price in the short term. The consistent underperformance in earnings compared to estimates, as evidenced by the past quarters, reinforces the expectation of a negative market reaction.
