AWK - American Water's Earnings and Revenue Flow Past Wall Street's Estimates
2024-02-18 17:35:24 ET
American Water Works (NYSE: AWK) , the largest publicly traded U.S. water and wastewater utility, reported robust fourth-quarter 2023 results on Wednesday after the closing bell.
Shares gained 3.1% on Thursday, though they declined 1.2% on Friday. Thursday's upward move was likely in part attributable to the company easily exceeding Wall Street's revenue and earnings estimates. But a good chunk of Thursday's gain and all of Friday's drop were probably due to overall market dynamics, as major indexes rose on Thursday and fell the next day.
