Earnings & Valuation
EPS (Earnings Per Share)
A company's net profit divided by the number of outstanding shares. The most common measure of profitability. Earnings beats (actual > estimate) typically push stock prices higher.

Revenue
Total income generated from sales of goods or services before any costs are deducted. Also called the "top line." Growth in revenue signals expanding business; shrinkage is a red flag.
EBITDA
Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization. A proxy for operating cash flow used to compare companies across different capital structures and tax jurisdictions.
Guidance
Forward-looking estimates provided by company management about expected future revenues, earnings, or margins. Downward guidance revisions often hit stock prices harder than a missed quarter.
P/S Ratio
Price-to-Sales ratio. Useful for valuing pre-profit companies where P/E is meaningless. Common in high-growth tech sectors.
P/B Ratio
Price-to-Book ratio. Compares market value to net asset value (assets minus liabilities). A P/B below 1 may signal undervaluation or distress.
DCF (Discounted Cash Flow)
A valuation method that estimates a company's value based on its projected future cash flows, discounted back to present value using a rate that reflects risk.
