Eric, I heard Joe Kernan on CNBC talking about C$CO reporting tomorrow. He mentioned they reported 34 cents in the year ago. I had them listed at 33 cents. They reported 51 pro-forma which equates to 34 cents when you account for the 3 for 2 split. I took the figure off some site that used net income of 49 cents giving a split adjusted 33 cents for the year ago. I have adjusted my table to reflect the more accurate pro-forma figures. Instead of C$CO being forecast to raise their earnings by a not so robust 27.27%, it looks like C$CO is actually on a pro-forma basis forecast to increase EPS only 23.53%. Even worse. It shows that unless C$CO beats the estimate tomorrow they will continue their decline in year over year EPS growth. You also didn't specify "basic" or "diluted" for your earnings guess. CNBC lately has been using whatever seems to fit their needs, sometimes using the "basic" number to say that companies met estimates and sometimes using the "diluted" estimates when a company would have beaten them either way.
