Chesapeake Energy Corporation plans to release its fourth quarter and full-year financial results on Tuesday, February 21, 2023.

The question for investors is—will the fourth quarter be as strong as the third quarter?

The Oklahoma City-based company said the release will be made after the market closes on that day. A conference call with a discussion by management will be held the following day, Wednesday, February 22 at 8 a.m. Central Time.

With a new focus on the Marcellus and Haynesville plays, Chesapeake had a strong third quarter, indicated by the results released in November of 2022.
