06Q1 Traditional "End-of-Quarter" EPS Contest Officially Begins

epscontest.com (Some specific contest pages are linked at the end of this message.)

A few key items about this quarter's contest (which are also elaborated upon in the rules page linked below):

DEADLINE: The contest deadline is April 12th at the U.S. Stock Market Open. AMD reports on the 12th and Intel reports on the 19th. Part of the AMD contest includes Spansion revenue results, but I do not know yet when Spansion is reporting. The deadline will be the 12th regardless of when Spansion reports. If Spansion reports before the deadline entries received on the date of their report or later will be assigned the average error for that category.

NEW CATEGORIES AND WEIGHTED CATEGORIES: See "What's New This Quarter" at the top of the rules page for more info.

FORECASTS vs. END-OF-QUARTER: We have already run two "forecast" entry periods this quarter, but they are completely separate from this traditional End-of-Quarter contest. Those of you that entered one or both of the early forecast competitions, your data will automatically carry over. As such, we already have 17 entries. :-) If you don't like your numbers you can resubmit new numbers and forfeit your bonus (just remember to submit a COMPLETE entry as your old one will be discarded). Or you can submit a revision for one company, keeping your bonus for the other. See the entry form for more details.

ENTRY PHASES: We start the contest with the "early entry phase" where the bonuses are bigger but none of the entries or statistical data is revealed. On Tuesday the 4th we will begin the "regular entry phase". At that time entries and statistical entry data are revealed for all to see, but bonuses are much smaller for those entering in this latter phase.

PRIZES: We give out 3 T-shirts and 3 quarterly SI & iHub subscriptions for each End-of-Quarter contest, in addition to the 2 shirts we give out for the Forecast competitions. See the 'Prizes' link below for more details.
