Earnings season is always an exciting time for investors, with companies finally revealing what’s transpired behind closed doors.
As usual, the big banks shifted the cycle into a much higher gear, with many other companies scheduled to follow suit.
And concerning looming surprises, Arista Networks (ANET - Free Report) , Coinbase (COIN - Free Report) , and KB Home (KBH - Free Report) could all bring positivity, with each boasting a positive Earnings ESP Score.
But how do expectations stack up heading into the releases? Let’s take a closer look.

Big growth is expected, with the $0.89 Zacks Consensus EPS estimate suggesting a nearly 500% climb from the year-ago period. Our consensus revenue estimate stands at $1.2 billion, 55% higher than the same period last year.
In addition, our consensus Transaction Revenue estimate stands at $666 million, nearly doubling last year’s mark of $375 million. The company posted a solid beat on the metric in its latest release, $185 million higher than expected.
Below is a chart illustrating the company’s revenue on a quarterly basis.
