On that day, TCEHY is projected to report earnings of $0.31 per share, which would represent year-over-year growth of 19.23%. Meanwhile, our latest consensus estimate is calling for revenue of $12.23 billion, up 25.1% from the prior-year quarter.
For the full year, our Zacks Consensus Estimates are projecting earnings of $1.21 per share and revenue of $47.63 billion, which would represent changes of +15.24% and +34.63%, respectively, from the prior year.
Investors should also note any recent changes to analyst estimates for TCEHY. These recent revisions tend to reflect the evolving nature of short-term business trends. As such, positive estimate revisions reflect analyst optimism about the company's business and profitability.
Based on our research, we believe these estimate revisions are directly related to near-team stock moves. To benefit from this, we have developed the Zacks Rank, a proprietary model which takes these estimate changes into account and provides an actionable rating system.
