Read MoreHide Full Article
In its upcoming report, ServiceNow (NOW - Free Report) is predicted by Wall Street analysts to post quarterly earnings of $3.54 per share, reflecting an increase of 13.1% compared to the same period last year. Revenues are forecasted to be $3.12 billion, representing a year-over-year increase of 18.8%.
The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has undergone a downward revision of 0.4% in the past 30 days, bringing it to its present level. This represents how the covering analysts, as a whole, have reassessed their initial estimates during this timeframe.
Prior to a company's earnings release, it is of utmost importance to factor in any revisions made to the earnings projections. These revisions serve as a critical gauge for predicting potential investor behaviors with respect to the stock. Empirical studies consistently reveal a strong link between trends in earnings estimate revisions and the short-term price performance of a stock.
While investors typically rely on consensus earnings and revenue estimates to gauge how the business may have fared during the quarter, examining analysts' projections for some of the company's key metrics often helps gain a deeper insight.
That said, let's delve into the average estimates of some ServiceNow metrics that Wall Street analysts commonly model and monitor.
