Read MoreHide Full Article
In its upcoming report, American Eagle Outfitters (AEO - Free Report) is predicted by Wall Street analysts to post quarterly earnings of $0.27 per share, reflecting an increase of 58.8% compared to the same period last year. Revenues are forecasted to be $1.15 billion, representing a year-over-year increase of 6.1%.
The current level reflects no revision 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.
Before a company reveals its earnings, it is vital to take into account any changes in earnings projections. These revisions play a pivotal role in predicting the possible reactions of investors toward the stock. Multiple empirical studies have consistently shown a strong association between trends in earnings estimates and the short-term price movements 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 American Eagle metrics that Wall Street analysts commonly model and monitor.
