Why Analyst Estimates And Earnings Surprises Are Important
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 102.22% decline in the company's EPS figure. Revenue would be up 16.77% from the year-ago period. Here is how the company's reported EPS has stacked up against analyst estimates in the past:
| Quarter | Q4 2020 | Q3 2020 | Q2 2020 | Q1 2020 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EPS Estimate | -0.01 | -0.03 | -0.08 | -0.15 |
| EPS Actual | -0.16 | -0.18 | 0.42 | 0.45 |
| Revenue Estimate | 11.20 M | 9.57 M | 11.33 M | 11.03 M |
| Revenue Actual | 11.70 M | 10.64 M | 9.40 M | 10.15 M |
