1 · Expected vs. Actual
Free preview belowFourth quarter GAAP EPS from continuing operations was $0.33 and adjusted EPS was $0.35, against a consensus estimate of $0.22, so the company beat on both lines by a wide margin. Full-year diluted EPS from continuing operations was $1.03, with adjusted EPS of $1.18. Watch the units: the $1.03 is a full-year diluted figure and the $0.35 is a quarterly adjusted figure, so the two are not directly comparable.
Fourth quarter revenue was $2.34 billion, up 11.0% from $2.11 billion, but only 7.0% after removing a $71 million currency tailwind. For the full year, revenue rose 7.0% to $9.03 billion, or 4.0% on an adjusted basis. The quarter's four segments — Dow Jones $644 million, Digital Real Estate Services $553 million, Book Publishing $566 million and News Media $574 million — add up to $2.34 billion.
