The Q4 earnings reports are already underway, and traders are closely watching to find out how some of their favourite companies have performed.
What are earnings reports?
Earnings reports are issued quarterly by publicly traded firms, and they disclose their financial situation. An earnings report presents the company’s profits (or losses) in a given quarter, as well as data such as sales volumes, revenue, and profit margins.
The balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement are the three primary financial statements included in earnings reports. They provide an overview of sales, expenses, net income, and earnings per share (EPS) when taken collectively.
