Wall Street analysts who study this company will publish analyst estimates of revenue and EPS. The averages of all analyst EPS and revenue estimates are called the "consensus estimates"; these consensus estimates can have a significant effect on a company's performance during an earnings release. When a company posts earnings or revenue above or below a consensus estimate, it has posted an "earnings surprise", which can really move a stock depending on the difference between actual and estimated values.
If the company were to match the consensus estimate when it reports Tuesday, earnings would be up 245.16%. Revenue would be up 12.49% from the same quarter last year. Here is how the company's reported EPS has stacked up against analyst estimates in the past:
| Quarter | Q1 2021 | Q4 2020 | Q3 2020 | Q2 2020 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EPS Estimate | 0.71 | 0.57 | 0.11 | -0.55 |
| EPS Actual | 2.47 | 1.50 | 0.84 | -0.62 |
| Revenue Estimate | 464.00 M | 451.85 M | 442.56 M | 475.96 M |
| Revenue Actual | 556.80 M | 496.10 M | 474.00 M | 410.70 M |
