Boeing (BA) Q4 Earnings Preview: What You Should Know Beyond the Headline Estimates
Read MoreHide Full Article
Wall Street analysts expect Boeing (BA - Free Report) to post quarterly loss of $0.72 per share in its upcoming report, which indicates a year-over-year increase of 58.9%. Revenues are expected to be $21.23 billion, up 6.2% from the year-ago quarter.
The current level reflects an upward revision of 4.7% in the consensus EPS estimate for the quarter over the past 30 days. This demonstrates how the analysts covering the stock have collectively reappraised their initial projections over this period.
Ahead of a company's earnings disclosure, it is crucial to give due consideration to changes in earnings estimates. These revisions serve as a noteworthy factor in predicting potential investor reactions to the stock. Numerous empirical studies consistently demonstrate a strong relationship between trends in earnings estimate revision and the short-term price performance of a stock.
While investors typically use consensus earnings and revenue estimates as a yardstick to evaluate the company's quarterly performance, scrutinizing analysts' projections for some of the company's key metrics can offer a more comprehensive perspective.
That said, let's delve into the average estimates of some Boeing metrics that Wall Street analysts commonly model and monitor.
