Q1 2025 Earnings Season Hub: Sector-by-Sector Breakdown

YCharts blog card for Q1 2025 Earnings Season Hub.

Introduction: Why Earnings Season Deserves Your Attention

Earnings season is one of the most important recurring events in the financial world. Every quarter, companies report their results—revealing not just profit and loss statements, but also broader signals about the health of industries, consumer sentiment, and economic trends.

This live-updating hub gives asset managers and advisors a sector-by-sector breakdown of the most relevant earnings reports and calls. Rather than a single summary, we’ve built deep-dives per sector to deliver better clarity and alignment with your investment research workflows.

From Financials’ NIM stability to Tech’s AI-driven upside, and Healthcare’s Medicare Advantage margins to Energy’s capital discipline, this hub is your jumping-off point for strategic insights.


What Is Earnings Season?

Earnings season refers to the period directly following each fiscal quarter when publicly traded companies disclose their quarterly financial performance. These reports typically include:

Revenue

Earnings per Share (EPS)

Forward guidance

Commentary on supply chains, demand, and macroeconomic impacts

The four primary earnings seasons occur shortly after the close of Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4, starting in January, April, July, and October.

Real Estate Sector

Real estate earnings so far have reflected the sector’s continued bifurcation. Industrial and logistics REITs—like Prologis and Rexford—are reporting strong fundamentals, including double-digit rent growth and high occupancy, driven by resilient e-commerce and supply chain demand. On the other hand, office and mixed-use properties are still contending with elevated vacancies and shifting tenant demand. As additional REITs report, investors will gain deeper clarity into how different subsegments are responding to the higher interest rate environment.
