What is the net income and earnings per share (EPS) for the six‑month period, and how do they compare with analyst expectations?

Answer

The press release you referenced only announces that Firm Capital Mortgage Investment Corporation (FC) has published its six‑month financial statements for the period ending June 30 2025. The excerpt you provided does not include the actual financial results—specifically the net income amount, the earnings‑per‑share (EPS) figure, or any commentary on how those results compare to analyst expectations.

What this means for your question

Information Requested Available in the provided excerpt?
Net income for the six‑month period No
EPS for the six‑month period No
Comparison to analyst expectations (e.g., beat/miss, % difference) No

How to obtain the answer

  1. Locate the full press release – The GlobeNewswire announcement (dated 2025‑08‑07) will typically include a “Financial Highlights” table that lists net income, EPS (often expressed as “net income per share” or “earnings per share”), and may note whether the results met, exceeded, or fell short of consensus analyst forecasts.

  2. Check the corporation’s investor relations page – Companies often post the complete earnings release (PDF or HTML) and a “Management Discussion & Analysis” (MD&A) that details performance versus expectations.

  3. Consult financial data providers – Platforms such as Bloomberg, Thomson Reuters, FactSet, or S&P Capital IQ will capture the six‑month results and show the consensus analyst estimate for EPS, allowing a direct comparison (e.g., “Actual EPS $0.12 vs. consensus estimate $0.10 – a 20% beat”).

  4. Review analyst commentary – If the release includes a “Outlook” or “Management Commentary” section, it may quote analysts or the company’s own guidance, which can be used to gauge whether the results were in line with market expectations.

If you can provide the missing figures (e.g., net income of $X million and EPS of $Y per share) or a link to the full earnings release, I can then:

  • Calculate the percentage change versus the prior period (if needed).
  • Compare the actual EPS to the consensus analyst estimate (e.g., “EPS beat by Z%”).
  • Summarize the market reaction or any notable analyst upgrades/downgrades.

Bottom line: Based solely on the information you supplied, the net income, EPS, and analyst‑expectation comparison for the six‑month period cannot be determined. Please share the detailed financial results or a link to the complete press release, and I’ll gladly provide a comprehensive analysis.
