Why did MNTK's Q3 2024 EPS outperform forecasts?

Montauk Renewables' Q3 2024 EPS outperformance can be attributed to **Increased Operating and Maintenance Expenses and General and Administrative Expenses**. Despite these increased costs, the company's EPS still fell short of expectations, as indicated by the EPS surprise of -0.11. This suggests that factors such as market conditions, operational efficiency, or revenue shortfalls may have played a role in the actual EPS falling below the forecasted figure. |code|Ticker|Name|Date|EPS Surprise|Diluted EPS|market_code| |---|---|---|---|---|---|---| |MNTK|MNTK.O|Montauk Renewables|2024 Q1|0.01|0.01|186| |MNTK|MNTK.O|Montauk Renewables|2024 Q2|-0.08|-0.01|186| |MNTK|MNTK.O|Montauk Renewables|2024 Q3|0.03|0.12|186| |MNTK|MNTK.O|Montauk Renewables|2024 Q4|-0.11||186|
