Hello Community,

I need to download long-term expected earnings growth for a large sample of IPO firms. My first idea was that the data must be available on IBES. However, I could not find anything helpful there. I’m I doing something wrong?
Any help would be much appreciated!!!

Many thanks!

hi,

In IBES, analyst long term earnings growth forecasts are included as measure=“EPS” and periodicity=“LTG”. Note that the number is the percentage x 100 (so ‘10’ means 10% annual growth).

best regards,

Joost
