Read MoreHide Full Article
The upcoming report from Motorola (MSI - Free Report) is expected to reveal quarterly earnings of $3.36 per share, indicating an increase of 3.7% compared to the year-ago period. Analysts forecast revenues of $2.74 billion, representing an increase of 4.2% year over year.
The current level reflects an upward revision of 0.2% 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 it's common for investors to rely on consensus earnings and revenue estimates for assessing how the business may have performed during the quarter, exploring analysts' forecasts for key metrics can yield valuable insights.
