BancFirst (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BANF#NASDAQ">BANF</a>) reported quarterly earnings of $1.75 per share which beat the analyst consensus estimate of $1.58 by 10.76 percent. This is a 15.13 percent increase over earnings of $1.52 per share from the same period last year.

If you are looking for a stock that has a solid history of beating earnings estimates and is in a good position to maintain the trend in its next quarterly report, you should consider BancFirst (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/banf#NASDAQ">BANF</a>). This company, which is in the Zacks Banks - Southwest industry, shows potential for another earnings beat.
This Oklahoma financial services holding company has seen a nice streak of beating earnings estimates, especially when looking at the previous two reports. The average surprise for the last two quarters was 7.91%.
For the last reported quarter, BancFirst came out with earnings of $1.51 per share versus the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.42 per share, representing a surprise of 6.34%. For the previous quarter, the company was expected to post earnings of $1.37 per share and it actually produced earnings of $1.50 per share, delivering a surprise of 9.49%.
With this earnings history in mind, recent estimates have been moving higher for BancFirst. In fact, the Zacks Earnings ESP (Expected Surprise Prediction) for the company is positive, which is a great sign of an earnings beat, especially when you combine this metric with its nice Zacks Rank.
Our research shows that stocks with the combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) or better produce a positive surprise nearly 70% of the time. In other words, if you have 10 stocks with this combination, the number of stocks that beat the consensus estimate could be as high as seven.
The Zacks Earnings ESP compares the Most Accurate Estimate to the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the quarter; the Most Accurate Estimate is a version of the Zacks Consensus whose definition is related to change. The idea here is that analysts revising their estimates right before an earnings release have the latest information, which could potentially be more accurate than what they and others contributing to the consensus had predicted earlier.
BancFirst currently has an Earnings ESP of +0.32%, which suggests that analysts have recently become bullish on the company&#39;s earnings prospects. This positive Earnings ESP when combined with the stock&#39;s Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) indicates that another beat is possibly around the corner.
With the Earnings ESP metric, it&#39;s important to note that a negative value reduces its predictive power; however, a negative Earnings ESP does not indicate an earnings miss.
Many companies end up beating the consensus EPS estimate, though this is not the only reason why their shares gain. Additionally, some stocks may remain stable even if they end up missing the consensus estimate.
Because of this, it&#39;s really important to check a company&#39;s Earnings ESP ahead of its quarterly release to increase the odds of success.
