Aug 4 (Reuters) - Diamondback Energy ( FANG ) missed
analysts' estimate for second-quarter profit on Monday, as the
shale producer took a hit from a decline in crude prices.
The Midland, Texas-based company posted an adjusted profit
of $2.67 per share for the quarter ended June 30, compared with
analysts' average estimate of $2.82, according to data compiled
by LSEG.
