Dean,
You need to understand what period of time the EPS numbers are covering i.e., prior 4 qtrs, last years actuals which could be substantially different, current forecasted EPS, etc.

Dean, most all of this information is variable and can be tough to count on sometimes. I use Schwab for a lot of it like EPS. Market Cap should be the same everywhere as it is just a simple equation. P/E, is quite variable based on price but you need good EPS numbers to calculate it.

The best thing to do is to do your news research and find the actual posting of EPS numbers from the last quarters.
