Read MoreHide Full Article
Wall Street analysts forecast that Post Holdings (POST - Free Report) will report quarterly earnings of $1.19 per share in its upcoming release, pointing to a year-over-year decline of 27%. It is anticipated that revenues will amount to $1.96 billion, exhibiting an increase of 0.8% compared to the year-ago quarter.
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 announces its earnings, it is essential to take into account any changes made to earnings estimates. This is a valuable factor in predicting the potential reactions of investors toward the stock. Empirical research has consistently shown a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and the short-term price performance of a stock.
While investors usually depend on consensus earnings and revenue estimates to assess the business performance for the quarter, delving into analysts' forecasts for certain key metrics often provides a more comprehensive understanding.
That said, let's delve into the average estimates of some Post Holdings metrics that Wall Street analysts commonly model and monitor.
