No companies had beaten earnings estimates out of zero reporting among six large US companies scheduled for the week of Nov. 16, according to Finnhub's earnings calendar. That leaves the entire group awaiting results, with comparisons against analyst forecasts still to come.
All six companies still have results to come. Their scheduled releases run from Nov. 17 through Nov. 19, with five reporting before the market opens and one after it closes. The calendar lists the timing of the pending announcements alongside estimates for earnings and revenue.
Nvidia is scheduled to report on Nov. 17 after the market closes. Finnhub lists an earnings estimate of $2.52 a share and a revenue estimate of $111.20 billion for the company. Those figures are forecasts ahead of the release, rather than results the company has reported.
The Home Depot and The Walt Disney Company are also scheduled to report on Nov. 17, both before the market opens. Their releases precede Nvidia's results later that day.
Home Depot's earnings estimate is $3.96 a share, with revenue estimated at $44.09 billion. Disney's earnings estimate is $1.69 a share, with revenue estimated at $25.44 billion.
Target is scheduled to report on Nov. 18 before the market opens. Its earnings estimate is $2.08 a share, with revenue estimated at $26.79 billion.
Lowe's Companies is also scheduled to release results on Nov. 18 before the market opens. Its earnings estimate is $2.91 a share, with revenue estimated at $22.65 billion. Both releases scheduled for that day are therefore due ahead of the opening of the market.
Walmart is scheduled to report on Nov. 19 before the market opens, completing the six-company calendar for the week. Its earnings estimate is $0.64 a share, with revenue estimated at $189.05 billion.
Earnings per share measures a company's profit divided by its outstanding shares. The earnings estimates are averages of analyst forecasts collected before the companies release their results. They provide the forecast figures against which actual earnings can be compared once the results are released.
None of the six companies has reported actual earnings for comparison with those estimates. The calendar therefore provides no count of companies reporting earnings above or below expectations. With all the releases still pending, there are no reported earnings in the group to place on either side of that comparison.
