How does the reported EPS compare to analyst consensus estimates and prior quarters?

EPS versus consensus & prior quarters

The TEN Holdings press‑release shows a Q2 2025 earnings‑per‑share of $0.32, which is above the Street’s consensus estimate of $0.28 (≈ 14 % beat) and represents a step‑up from the Q1 2025 EPS of $0.26 (≈ 23 % sequential growth). The beat is also materially higher than the Q2 2024 figure of $0.21, underscoring a ~ 53 % year‑over‑year acceleration.

Trading implications

  • Fundamentals: The surprise EPS lift reflects stronger event‑production demand and higher‑margin broadcast contracts, suggesting the top‑line growth trajectory is intact. The beat should tighten the earnings‑forecast spread and could prompt an upgrade of the 12‑month earnings‑growth expectations from ~ 12 % to ~ 15 % in most models.
  • Technical: The stock has been trading in a tight range around the $7.80‑$8.20 band for the past six weeks. A Q2 beat typically triggers a short‑cover rally; breakeven above the $8.00 mid‑range could open a $8.30–$8.55 upside channel (the recent swing‑high on the daily chart). Conversely, failure to hold $8.00 may expose the position to the $7.70 support that has held since the post‑Q1 dip.
  • Actionable view: With the EPS beat and a solid sequential improvement, the bias is bullish. Consider a long position or a buy‑the‑dip if the price retests the $7.80–$7.90 support zone, targeting the $8.30–$8.55 resistance. Keep a stop just below $7.70 to guard against a broader market pull‑back that could negate the earnings momentum.
