I noticed for some stocks, their Snapshot page seems to have some inconsistent data.
For example: https://www.portfolio123.com/app/stock?t=HOLX
The quarterly EPS chart shows negative EPS. Yet the Actual vs. Estimate table shows positive EPS. Why would these numbers be different?
The chart is GAAP found in financials. The estimates is adjusted by analysts. This company interestingly shows them both in their filings

Just to clarify, “actual” does not mean GAAP (what’s reported to the SEC), it means post-announcement analyst-adjusted earnings.
Awesome - thanks so much Marco and Yuval. I really appreciate it!
