Alpha Theory has partnered with New Constructs, the leading provider of insights into the fundamentals and valuation of private and public businesses, to provide a score based on a firms’ likelihood of beating or missing earnings.

This feature works by pulling New Constructs’ Earnings Distortion Scores directly into Alpha Theory. These scores indicate the likelihood of a firm to beat or miss consensus expectations for EPS, revenue, or guidance in the next quarter:

   1 – Strong Beat
   2 – Beat
   3 – Inline
   4 – Miss
   5 – Strong Miss

“We are excited that Alpha Theory’s clients will now have access to our proprietary consensus earnings prediction tool, which will help them make smarter investment decisions,” said David Trainer, founder and CEO of New Constructs.

Earnings Distortion measures the level of non-core income/expense contained within reported earnings. It is a proprietary measure featured by professors from Harvard Business School and MIT Sloan in a recent paper: Core Earnings: New Data & Evidence. The paper empirically demonstrates the superiority of New Constructs’ measure of Core Earnings based on its proprietary adjustments for unusual gains/losses.
