The company successfully launched or transitioned Monster Energy Drinks to Coca-Cola bottlers in a number of markets in the quarter and expects further transitions and launches in the second half of the year.

Natural Resource Partners (NYSE:NRP) was downgraded by analysts at Zacks Investment Research from a hold rating to a strong sell rating. According to Zacks, “In last six months, loss in the units of Natural Resource Partners’ was wider than the industry’s decline. The partnership’s earnings per unit in the second quarter were lower than the Zacks Consensus Estimate. The decline was due to lower contribution from its Soda Ash segment. The company depends on a few customers for coal royalty revenues, which could adverse impact its future performance. Rising competition in domestic and international space are headwinds. Natural Resource Partners is well poised to reap the benefits of improving metallurgical coal prices and President Trump’s decision to relax the stringent environmental regulations. Additionally, the strong natural gas prices have been helpful for the thermal coal industry.”

According to Zacks, “OGE Energy’s second-quarter earnings surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate and were also up year over year. The company’s operating revenues in the quarter also improved from the prior-year period. However, the company reiterated its bottom-line guidance for 2017. Moreover, the company needs to watch out for stringent government regulations, as any change in the regulatory environment could impact the company's earnings. The company also faces challenges in the form of severe weather conditions and natural calamities that can potentially disrupt its normal operations. Further, operational risks related to its transmission and distribution segments, may hurt growth. Nevertheless, OGE Energy is the largest electric utility in Oklahoma and its well-positioned regulated utility and unregulated midstream gas businesses carry low risk. Also its share price has outperformed the broader industry’s price over the last one year.”

According to Zacks, “Regal Beloit reported relatively healthy second-quarter 2017 results with year-over year increase in adjusted earnings and revenues on the back of modest organic growth and positive order trends. The company continues to focus on prudent investment decisions for a disciplined capital allocation, strong and flexible balance sheet and cash flow enhancement to support dividend growth. A robust operating platform and an efficient management team will likely help in the execution of its strategic priorities and drive net asset value in the future. Regal Beloit has outperformed the industry year to date. However, margin pressures, high concentration risks and adverse foreign currency translation remain headwinds for the company. With the rise in competition within the industry, Regal Beloit is witnessing a decline in its product prices, which in turn is detrimental to its overall margins.
