How the Estimated Annual EPS Growth filter works
Estimated Annual EPS Growth is a ratio used to estimate the annual growth rate of a company's earnings per share (EPS). It compares the current quarterly data to that of 12 months ago. The ratio provides insight into the company's earnings growth trajectory over the past year, helping investors assess its performance and growth potential.
Calculation: The formula for Estimated Annual EPS Growth is: (current EPS estimate - year ago actual EPS) / current EPS estimate.
Key point
Interpretation: A positive Estimated Annual EPS Growth indicates that the current EPS estimate is higher than the EPS from the same period one year ago. This suggests potential earnings growth over the past year. A negative value indicates that the current EPS estimate is lower than the EPS from the same period one year ago, suggesting a decline in earnings over the past year. The magnitude of the ratio reflects the percentage change in EPS over the past year relative to the current EPS estimate.
