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 be up358.21%. Sales would be up 87.78% from the year-ago period. In comparison to analyst estimates in the past, here is how the company's reported EPS stacks up: Quarter Q2 2021 Q1 2021 Q4 2020 Q3 2020EPS Estimate 1.83 1.20 0.68 0.48EPS Actual 2.79 1.88 1.18 0.67Revenue Estimate 556.80 M 456.79 M 430.03 M 364.64 MRevenue Actual 639.54 M 511.08 M 477.42 M 384.90 M
