Hello, P/E and EPS data in "summary" tab on the ABBV stock doesn't match the data from the income statements nor forward EPS estimates. Because of this the P/E appears to be 50% lower than it should be.  Other finance sites are showing double the P/E that is shown on SA. This is the only stock that I've noticed this problem with, but there might be more, which could potentially complicate stock screening process for your customers.

Hi,

You can see both the PE we offer i.e. FWD & TTM in the valuation tab of the symbol page.
https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/ABBV

As per the DEC 2020 estimates, EPS FWD will be $10.44, when the current price is divided by the EPS FWD; we get $8.39

Okay, I see, there is just a big gap between FWD EPS estimates and GAAP (TTM) EPS on this particular stock.

Thank you.
