Can someone explain what the 1m Change and 3m Change mean in respect of the figures next to them.
Example
| rice Target: AU$0.45(4.71% above Price) | 30th Jun 2020 | 30th Jun 2021 | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Est. Long Term Growth Rate: | Net Profit (AU$) | EPS (¢) | DPS (¢) | Net Profit (AU$) | EPS (¢) | DPS (¢) |
| Consensus Estimate | 9.89m | 2.90 | 0.90 | 15.81m | 4.70 | 2.30 |
| 1m Change | -4.34m | -1.30 | -0.40 | -412.00k | -0.10 | -0.10 |
| 3m Change | -3.72m | -1.20 | -0.80 | -1.30m | -0.70 | +0.10 |
If you look up the definitions of:
in the glossary you'll see. (I can't link to the specific definition - it is part of a page).
It is the change in the consensus broker forecast for EPS (DPS) over the past one or three months for either the next year or the one after that.
When screening they use the percentage and in the stock report they use the actual value.
Thank you for the comment Nick,
I struggle to find help on this site, I guess it is me :)
What I am not clear on is 1m consensus, does that mean expectation/forecasts that have been given during the last 30 days?
Is this to be compare to 3m ie what brokers thought the forecast were then...(say 90 days)??
In my example does it mean that the brokers believe there will be greater loss off c$600k now compared to what they thought back 90days ago?
Yes - it is the change since 1m (or 3m) ago.
When you use it as a screen it is often N/A because of missing info which makes the screen fail.
