Net Income, Earnings, And Earnings Per Share
Earnings and especially earnings per share (EPS) are useful measures of a company's profitability. Total earnings, which is also referred to as net income, equals total revenue minus total expenses. EPS equals to net income divided by the number of shares outstanding.
Earnings And Revenue
Wall Street analysts see Matinas BioPharma Hldgs reporting a loss of $-0.03 per share on revenue of $30.00 thousand. In the same quarter last year, Matinas BioPharma Hldgs announced EPS of $0.03 on revenue of $0.00.
Why Analyst Estimates And Earnings Surprises Are Important
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 when it reports Tuesday, EPS would have fallen 0%. Sales would be unchanged from the same quarter last year. Matinas BioPharma Hldgs's reported EPS has stacked up against analyst estimates in the past like this:
| Quarter | Q1 2021 | Q4 2020 | Q3 2020 | Q2 2020 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EPS Estimate | -0.03 | -0.03 | -0.03 | -0.03 |
| EPS Actual | -0.03 | -0.03 | -0.03 | -0.03 |
