Quarterly Earnings Releases, Expectations, and Price Behavior Sam Lim
Set-up Purpose: to explore the relationship between analyst expectations, quarterly earnings releases, and stock price behavior. Analyst earnings estimates and actual earnings obtained from Wharton’s WRDS, from the I/B/E/S database. Release time of quarterly earnings announcement (BMO or AMC) obtained from Earnings. com
Set-up (continued) HAR-RV Model RV is annualized Earnings surprise factor (percentage) ( EPSactual - EPSestimate ) / EPSactual * 100 Run HAR-RV adding the surprise factor as a regressor. On days of quarterly earnings announcements (the day after, if announcements are made AMC), SURPRISE = surprise factor. Otherwise, SURPRISE = 0.

Pepsi (PEP) Similar results as Amazon regressions. Regressing overnight returns with surprise – statistically significant, positive relationship (p-value is nearly 0) Regressing intraday returns with surprise – statistically insignificant, slightly negative relationship(p-value. 15) However, split-sign regression yields positive relationship significant at 10% level, but only for positive surprises (not stat. sig. for negative surprises)

Further analysis Try Lee-Mykland test for jumps, to see if there are intraday jumps occurring. Account for dispersion in analyst expectations. Try to find what is the norm/exception (Chevron has the nicest results, is the norm or exception? ) If Chevron’s results are the norm, how long does this uncertainty after a earnings surprise last? Incorporate other stock-specific news announcements to see effect on stock price behavior (similar to Alison Keane’s research on macroeconomic news announcements) Continuing with the effects of analysts theme, perhaps look at analyst recommendations (buy/hold) and stock behavior.
