Visa (V - Free Report) reported $9.62 billion in revenue for the quarter ended September 2024, representing a year-over-year increase of 11.7%. EPS of $2.71 for the same period compares to $2.33 a year ago.
The reported revenue represents a surprise of +1.17% over the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $9.51 billion. With the consensus EPS estimate being $2.58, the EPS surprise was +5.04%.
While investors closely watch year-over-year changes in headline numbers -- revenue and earnings -- and how they compare to Wall Street expectations to determine their next course of action, some key metrics always provide a better insight into a company's underlying performance.
As these metrics influence top- and bottom-line performance, comparing them to the year-ago numbers and what analysts estimated helps investors project a stock's price performance more accurately.
