What is EPS (Earnings per share)?

Also called: Earnings per share

Hinglish mein padhein: EPS kya hota hai?

EPS is a company's net profit divided by its number of shares — the profit earned for each share you own.

Trailing EPS uses the last 12 months of reported profit. Growing EPS over years is one of the strongest drivers of long-term share prices.

Diluted EPS accounts for extra shares that could be created from options or convertibles.
