Company Earnings Quality Score

This endpoint provides Earnings Quality Score for global companies.

Earnings quality refers to the extent to which current earnings predict future earnings. "High-quality" earnings are expected to persist, while "low-quality" earnings do not. A higher score means a higher earnings quality

Finnhub uses a proprietary model which takes into consideration 4 criteria:

  • Profitability
  • Growth
  • Cash Generation & Capital Allocation
  • Leverage

We then compare the metrics of each company in each category against its peers in the same industry to gauge how quality its earnings is.
