And thanks again for running the contest very professionally. BTW, I am going to have a look, 3 months from now, how the Q3 actual compares to our estimates. Maybe the crazy numbers from me and Kevin will not look so crazy then. ;)

Again, we all left Zacks far behind! Congratulations to Rzborusa for hitting bullseye on the EPS for the second time in a row — an unprecedented feat! Honourable mentions go to Gvatty and Joe for the closest outlook and revenue, respectively. Thanks to all for playing!

And kudos to AMD for yet another stellar quarter!

Scoreboards

Note that, unlike the main EPS Contest, which is primarily ranked by EPS, these boards are ranked by overall score, which is an equally weighted average of subscores. Scores are calculated as (1+error)^-2 per quarter and normalized for the year by sum(scores)/4. The squaring of the denominator in the score calculation is just done to spread out the scores a little. There is no explicit relative weighting of EPS and revenue error, i.e. a 1 cent error in EPS equals a $10M error in revenue.
