Why are the earnings inconsistent with company report and yahoo?
For example, Q2 2019 for Facebook. I am really trying to learn why reported earnings are not the same across websites. SeekingAlpha has 1.99 while FB has 0.91 Sometimes tradingview also displays a different number than yahoo..
The differences are usually related to Non-GAAP (i.e. adjusted) vs GAAP. SEC filings always have GAAP while press releases usually have Non-GAAP or both.
Thanks,
