1 target far from the company's reported total, so not compared (usually a target for one product, segment or definition)
- Diluted EPS, Fiscal 2024 (ended 2024-09-30): said $0.55 to $0.60, reported $3.43. The company's words
Targets are read from the sentences of the EX-99 exhibits of 8-K item 2.02 filings (15 releases since 2023-11-07), without AI; in outlook tables only the first column is read. The result compares the reported number with the last range given before the period was reported. Results come from SEC's XBRL company facts, as first reported. A company's target can use its own definition (META's capital expenditures include finance lease payments, for example), so read the quote.
