What Are Analyst Estimates And Earnings Surprises, And Why Do They Matter?

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 report earnings in line when it publishes results Monday, earnings would be down 11.27%. Revenue would be up 7.28% from the year-ago period. Here is how the company's reported EPS has stacked up against analyst estimates in the past:

Quarter Q4 2021 Q3 2020 Q2 2020 Q1 2020
EPS Estimate 0.41 0.33 0.10 0.47
EPS Actual 0.61 0.47 0.18 0.71
Revenue Estimate 1.28 B 1.20 B 1.09 B 1.33 B
Revenue Actual 1.34 B 1.23 B 1.09 B 1.30 B

Stock Performance

Shares of Chemours were trading at $31.14 as of April 29. Over the last 52-week period, shares are up 185.24%. Given that these returns are generally positive, long-term shareholders are probably happy going into this earnings release.
