NEGATIVE IMPACT
ALLETE's Q3 earnings per share missed expectations significantly, while sales exceeded estimates. The EPS decline of 47.65% from last year is concerning, but the sales growth of 7.50% is a positive sign.
The significant miss on EPS compared to estimates and the large year-over-year decline in EPS are likely to negatively impact the stock price in the short term. However, the beat on sales and year-over-year sales growth provide some positive context.
