For more than 25 years, Zacks Investment Research,  Inc., has been providing brokerage firms, individual and institutional investors and internet sites with comprehensive equity research services. Founded in 1978, Zacks is based in Chicago, IL and is the second largest provider of independent, fundamental equity research in the United States. In 1982, Zacks led the way in equity research innovation by developing the concept of the “earnings surprise” as an added dimension to corporate Earnings Per Share reports. In addition, Zacks also created the first quantitative model to predict stock prices based on patterns in estimate revisions and surprises. This is known as the “Zacks Rank.” As a result of this groundbreaking effort, the concept of the EPS surprises and estimate revisions became extremely popular and their use became widespread throughout the investment industry. So much so, that today this information is almost always quoted in news accounts related to company earnings.

The research group at Zacks Independent Research comprises 30 Senior Equity Analysts, almost all of whom have the Certified Financial Analyst (CFA) designation. These analysts author detailed research reports on a universe of approximately 1200 companies. Zacks analysts are available for media comment on their respective companies and industries, as their schedules allow. For your convenience, we have compiled this Zacks Analyst Coverage Guide. It is a quick reference guide containing the stocks Zacks currently follows, their ticker symbol and the name of the analyst covering the stock. We hope you will  use it often.
