伦敦证券交易所集团旗下I/B/E/S周四发布的一份报告显示，欧洲蓝筹股有望交出四年来第二好的季度业绩，能源公司报告了亮眼的利润增长，提振了整体表现。
European blue-chips are set to deliver their second-best quarterly earnings in four years, an LSEG I/B/E/S report showed on Thursday, buoyed by energy companies reporting stellar profit growth.
根据LSEG基于144家公司已公布业绩以及对尚未公布业绩公司的市场预估所得数据，欧洲基准股指斯托克600指数成分股公司的季度盈利预计平均增长23.6%。这一增幅仅略低于上一季度的23.9%。
Companies on Europe's benchmark STOXX 600 index (.STOXX) are expected to report quarterly earnings growth of 23.6% on average, according to the LSEG data based on results from 144 companies and market estimates for those that are yet to report. That is just a notch under the previous quarter's 23.9% increase.
增长主要来自能源行业利润的大幅跃升。LSEG报告显示，由于伊朗战争推高能源价格以及炼油利润率创下纪录，能源行业盈利同比上升139%。
Most of that growth is due to the energy sector's big profit jump, with the LSEG report showing earnings rising 139% compared with the previous year thanks to energy prices driven higher by the Iran war, and record refining margins.
不过，剔除能源行业后，斯托克600指数其余成分股公司第三季度盈利总体预计增长9.8%，高于此前16个季度7.1%的平均水平。
Still, excluding the energy sector, the rest of the companies in the STOXX 600 index are expected to post a 9.8% growth in third-quarter earnings, on aggregate, which is above the average of 7.1% over the previous 16 quarters.
欧洲蓝筹股公司第三季度营收前景也有所改善，目前预计同比增长13.6%，这将是2022年第三季度以来的最佳表现。
The third-quarter revenue outlook for European blue-chip companies has also improved and is now seen growing at 13.6% from a year ago, which would mark the best showing since the third quarter of 2022.
报告显示，本季度10个行业中有8个预计将实现利润增长，而房地产公司和消费周期性行业——汽车、零售和娱乐公司——预计盈利将出现萎缩。
According to the report, 8 out of 10 sectors are expected to post profit growth in the quarter, while real estate firms and consumer cyclicals - auto, retail and entertainment companies - are seen delivering shrinking earnings.
周四早些时候，斯托克600指数触及一个多月以来的高点，一系列强劲的财报提振了市场情绪，国防和能源公司领涨。
Earlier on Thursday, the STOXX 600 index touched over one-month highs as a slew of strong earnings reports lifted sentiment, with defence and energy companies among the top gainers.
