More I/B/E/S Estimates and Enhanced Functionality!
July 27, 2000
Data Downlink has just added the following I/B/E/S Analyst Estimates to both its .xls and Portal B services:
| Book Value | Net Income | |
| Earnings before Goodwill | Net Asset Value | |
| EBIT | Operating Profit | |
| EBITDA | Return on Assets (%) | |
| Funds from Operations | Return on Equity (%) |
Analyst forecasts for Earnings, Cash Flow, Dividends, Pre-tax Profit and Sales are already available, in addition to broker recommendations. All data is available in both the Consensus and Detail (analyst by analyst) reports. Even though more data has been added, the report prices have remained the same.
In addition to all the new estimates, Data Downlink has added new functionality to the I/B/E/S database:
- Check boxes have been added so that you can select the estimates you want to include in the report, and then see which ones are available before the report is downloaded.
- There is now a feature that enables you to create a list of companies, and then save it and recall it for later use. This is helpful for people who need to download reports on the same companies on a regular basis.
I/B/E/S created the first consensus earnings estimates database in 1971. Today, I/B/E/S databases cover 18,000 companies in 60 countries, with a total of 10.4 million estimates from nearly 900 brokerage firms worldwide. I/B/E/S International is a division of Primark Corporation.
