I think most of the estimate gatherers (IBES, First Call, TED, Zack's, Nelson's, Yahoo, etc) have pretty confused pages on Creaf. The one by TED (The Estimate Directory) is hilarious. A gigantic list of estimates with a HUGE spread because the earnings are in both US$ and S$, before items, after terms, any combination of the above. Some of the obviously US$ ones have been market S$, and vice-versa. And many of the estimates are from continuous operations although some are obviously the "reported" earnings. Actually, if these agencies can get their act together, to get a consistent correct estimate for consensus on Creaf's earnings, it would help the stock TREMENDOUSLY. The IBES and Zacks estimates look better but I suspect some inconsistency as well. But the TED one (used in Singapore) is so WRONG, WRONG, WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
