Q3 Earnings Outlook For Goldman Sachs

Goldman Sachs Group GS announces its next round of earnings Tuesday. Here is Benzinga's everything-that-matters guide for the Q3 earnings announcement.

Earnings and Revenue

Based on Goldman Sachs Group management projections, analysts predict EPS of $5.38 on revenue of $8.4 billion.

Goldman Sachs Group EPS in the same period a year ago totaled $5.02. Revenue was $8.33 billion. If the company were to match the consensus estimate when it reports Tuesday, EPS would be up 7.17 percent. Revenue would be up 0.89 percent on a year-over-year basis. Here's how the company's reported EPS has stacked up against analyst estimates in the past:

 

Quarter Q2 2018 Q1 2018 Q4 2017 Q3 2017
EPS Estimate 4.58 5.41 5.17 4.15
EPS Actual 5.98 6.95 5.68 5.02

Stock Performance

Over the last 52-week period, shares are down 11.77 percent. Given that these returns are generally negative, long-term shareholders are likely a little upset going into this earnings release.

Analysts have adjusted their estimates higher for EPS and revenues over the past 90 days. Analysts seem to have settled on a Neutral rating with Goldman Sachs Group. The strength of this rating has maintained conviction over the past three months.
