Amid favorable residential real estate market conditions, the company’s customer-centric, tech-driven home buying and selling platform is likely to have gained popularity. Moreover, OPAD recently reported a customer service rating of 92%. This is likely to have led to increased investors’ optimism, driving the stock up.

This company is expected to post quarterly loss of $1.30 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -316.7%. Revenues are expected to be $188.52 million, down 82.5% from the year-ago quarter.

While earnings and revenue growth expectations are important in evaluating the potential strength in a stock, empirical research shows a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and near-term stock price movements.

For Offerpad Solutions Inc., the consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days. And a stock's price usually doesn't keep moving higher in the absence of any trend in earnings estimate revisions.
