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.
If the company were to match the consensus estimate, earnings would be up 25.0%. Revenue would be unchanged from the year-ago period. The company's reported EPS has stacked up against analyst estimates in the past like this:
| Quarter | Q3 2020 | Q2 2020 | Q1 2020 | Q4 2020 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EPS Estimate | -0.03 | -0.03 | -0.03 | -0.03 |
| EPS Actual | -0.03 | -0.03 | -0.03 | -0.04 |
| Revenue Estimate | 20.00 K | 20.00 K | 30.00 K | 20.00 K |
