What Are Earnings, Net Income, And Earnings Per Share?
Earnings and especially earnings per share (EPS) are useful measures of a company's profitability. Total earnings, which is also referred to as net income, equals total revenue minus total expenses. EPS equals to net income divided by the number of shares outstanding.
Earnings And Revenue
Analysts covering PagSeguro Digital modeled for quarterly EPS of $0.2 on revenue of $324.04 million. In the same quarter last year, PagSeguro Digital reported EPS of $0.28 on revenue of $351.12 million.
What Are Analyst Estimates And Earnings Surprises, And Why Do They Matter?
Analysts who cover this company will publish forward-looking estimates of its revenue and EPS each quarter. Averaging together every EPS and revenue prediction that each analyst makes about a company in a quarter yields the "consensus estimates." A company posting earnings or revenue above or below the consensus estimate is known as an "earnings surprise" and may move the stock by a considerable margin.
The analyst consensus estimate would represent a 28.57% decrease in the company's earnings. Revenue would have fallen 7.71% from the same quarter last year. Here is how the company's reported EPS has stacked up against analyst estimates in the past:
| Quarter | Q2 2020 | Q1 2020 | Q4 2020 | Q3 2019 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EPS Estimate | 0.17 | 0.21 | 0.31 | 0.29 |
| EPS Actual | 0.17 | 0.25 | 0.31 | 0.28 |
