17:08 ET EBAY eBay guides FY03 pro forma EPS lower (58.15 +0.17) -- Update -- More on the 2003 guidance: the $1.77-1.83 bln revenue guides includes PayPal and was identical to the guidance offered on Oct 2 when the PayPal acquisition closed. However, eBay said at that time that the PayPal acquisition would be slightly accretive to 2003 pro forma EPS. The current consensus estimates are $1.16 at First Call and $1.17 at Multex. Though it's not clear if all analysts included PayPal, to the extent that they did not, the consensus could be slightly higher. Even being generous and taking the $1.16 First Call number and assuming that all estimates included PayPal, eBay's guidance of $1.12-1.15 is taking numbers down a notch. EBAY -1.15 at 57.00 after hours
