We expect Alliance Data Systems Corporation to beat earnings expectations when it reports its fourth-quarter and full-year 2016 results on Jan 26.
Why a Likely Positive Surprise?
Our proven model shows that Alliance Data has the right combination of two key ingredients to beat earnings.

Zacks Rank #3 (Hold): Alliance Data carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). Note that stocks with a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) and 3 have a significantly higher chance of beating earnings.
The combination of Alliance Data’s Zacks Rank #3 and ESP of +0.23% makes us confident of an earnings beat on Jan 26. The Zacks Consensus Estimate of $4.41 for the quarter reflects a year-over-year increase of about 14%.
Notably, the company has reported a positive earnings surprise in three of the trailing four quarters.
Alliance Data Systems Corporation Price and EPS Surprise
Zacks Names "Single Best Pick to Double"
From thousands of stocks, 5 Zacks experts each have chosen their favorite to skyrocket +100% or more in months to come. From those 5, Director of Research Sheraz Mian hand-picks one to have the most explosive upside of all.
It’s a little-known chemical company that’s up 65% over last year, yet still dirt cheap. With unrelenting demand, soaring 2022 earnings estimates, and $1.5 billion for repurchasing shares, retail investors could jump in at any time.
This company could rival or surpass other recent Zacks’ Stocks Set to Double like Boston Beer Company which shot up +143.0% in little more than 9 months and NVIDIA which boomed +175.9% in one year.
