The latest data point for BAC's EPS Surprise % in Q1'26 stands at 9.90%, reflecting a positive outcome where actual earnings exceeded analyst expectations by nearly 10%. This marks a strong rebound from the preceding Q4'25 figure of 2.30% and the null performance in Q3'25, indicating improved alignment between forecasts and results in the most recent quarter. Over the period from Q2'23 to Q1'26, EPS Surprise % has shown moderate volatility with an overall positive bias, fluctuating between a low of 1.45% in Q4'23 and a high of 10.16% in Q1'25, while maintaining surprises above 3% in most quarters except Q3'25 where no surprise was recorded. In contrast, EPS Growth (YoY) exhibits greater instability, with sharp declines such as -58.14% in Q4'23 and recoveries like 130.56% in Q4'24, trending toward consistent positive growth in recent periods (e.g., 23.08% in Q1'26), suggesting BAC's earnings have accelerated year-over-year despite periodic setbacks. This dual-line chart highlights a stabilizing surprise metric alongside recovering growth, potentially signaling enhanced operational predictability for financial analysts.
