Analysts predict Mattel will report earnings of 20 cents per share on revenue of $1.49 billion.
In the same quarter last year, Mattel posted EPS of 9 cents on sales of $1.56 billion. Revenue would have fallen 4.55 percent from the same quarter last year. Here's how the Mattel's reported EPS has stacked up against analyst estimates in the past:
| Quarter | Q2 2018 | Q1 2018 | Q4 2017 | Q3 2017 |
| EPS Estimate | -0.29 | -0.38 | 0.26 | 0.63 |
| EPS Actual | -0.56 | -0.6 | -0.72 | 0.09 |
Stock Performance
Over the last 52-week period, shares are down 13.07 percent. Given that these returns are generally negative, long-term shareholders are probably a little upset going into this earnings release. Analyst estimates are adjusted higher for EPS and revenues over the past 90 days. Analysts seem to have settled on a Neutral rating with Mattel. The strength of this rating has maintained conviction over the past three months.
