Analyst Update: Quarterly Results, and Monthly Fleet Report

Reviewed by: Rohit Tuli, CFA(R)

The U.S. stock market ended in red on Tuesday with energy stocks being the worst performers of the day. A less than expected December 2014 consumer confidence index (CCI) figure deterred investor confidence further. The U.S. CCI climbed to 92.6 in December from a revised 91.0 last month, below a post-recession high of 94.1 set in October 2014. The DJIA declined 0.31%, S&P 500 dropped 0.49% and the Nasdaq Composite weakened 0.61% during the session. The European stock market also declined, led by weakness in energy companies as Brent oil fell to a five and a half year low on persistent concerns about a global supply glut. The Asian stock market closed broadly lower too. The Japanese government on Tuesday agreed to a tax reform, approving a plan to cut corporate taxes by 2.51 percentage point from April 2015 and then by another 0.78 percentage points in the following year, in an effort to spur economic growth.

Gulf Coast Ultra Deep Royalty Trust (Gulf Coast Royalty Trust) reported Trust corpus of $371.4 million as of September 30, 2014, compared to $400.0 million as on December 31, 2013.

Hallador Energy Company (Hallador Energy) notified a whopping 76.1% YoY increase in its Q3 2014 revenue to $66.3 million led by revenues from coal sales, which stood at $64.8 million, up 85.1 % YoY. However, the Company reported a net loss of $5.8 million during the quarter as compared to net income of $4.8 million in Q3 2013.
