At 17.0× trailing and 15.1× forward earnings, consensus estimates imply little change in earnings power.

Risk check: RSI 71 — a level conventionally read as overbought; gains at these levels often lean on momentum; trading volume is running 1.6× its average — elevated turnover around the report window.

EPS and the estimate come from Yahoo Finance’s earnings calendar, captured around the report date. That EPS is the adjusted figure analysts forecast, so it can differ from the GAAP diluted EPS in the company’s filing, and consensus estimates vary between data providers. Revenue comes from SEC XBRL company facts where available, yfinance-provisional otherwise. Not a buy/sell rating, a price target, or investment advice — see the current verdict on the stock’s main page for TrendMatrix’s live read.
