What this earnings screen actually checks
The company screener returns at most 30 candidates matching the country, sector and market-cap request. This page then requests annual growth records and trailing financial ratios for those symbols. Growth thresholds apply after that candidate limit, so the result is a bounded sample rather than a ranking of every stock.
Use the filters in two stages
- Choose country, sector and capitalization limits. Market-cap inputs use millions of provider units; currencies are not converted.
- Set minimum annual EPS or revenue growth as percentages. A value of zero is an active filter, not an empty field.
- Optionally require a five-year arithmetic EPS-growth average or set a positive trailing P/E ceiling. Missing values fail an active filter.
- Select Find Stocks, or apply an example preset. Review the candidate count, missing-data notice and fiscal date. Sorting affects all matches before pagination.
Annual growth and the five-year mean
For a positive base, growth from EPS of 2 to 2.50 is (2.50 − 2) / 2 = 25%. This tool displays the provider’s reported annual growth ratios; it does not reconstruct EPS or verify their treatment of negative or zero bases. Check the filing before interpreting a loss-to-profit transition or a very large growth percentage.
Five annual rates of 10%, 20%, −10%, 0% and 30% have an arithmetic average of 10%. That average does not imply growth in every year and is not the compound rate between beginning and ending EPS. This page requires five consecutive fiscal years with all five rates present; it does not fill missing years with zero.
Growth is a question for research, not a quality score
EPS can change because of earnings, share-count changes, one-time items or accounting differences. Revenue growth alone does not establish profitability, and EPS growth does not establish cash generation. Compare fiscal periods and definitions in the issuer’s reports. A low positive P/E can reflect risks; a high growth average does not prove a durable advantage or future price gains.
Data scope and limitations
The latest annual EPS and revenue growth share the most recent valid annual record returned for the exact symbol. The five-year mean requires consecutive fiscal-year labels. Positive P/E comes from the separate trailing-twelve-month ratios response, so its measurement window differs from the annual growth window. Financial data is cached and may be revised.
Price and market capitalization are snapshots supplied with company candidates. Currency is shown only when supplied; no dollar sign is assumed for international listings. Rows with missing growth remain visible when that filter is inactive. Filters cannot recover companies outside the initial candidate sample.
