Overview of IBES Smartestimates & Analytics

Description of the dataset

  • For investors seeking more predictive estimate signals, LSEG provides Estimate Analytics powered by StarMine SmartEstimates and related I/B/E/S summary measures. We enhance traditional mean estimates by weighting analysts based on timeliness and historical accuracy rather than treating every estimate equally.
  • LSEG identifies recent revision clusters to help customers detect coordinated changes in analyst expectations over short periods. We provide cluster dates, detection dates, average revisions, cluster mean estimates and estimate units so customers can evaluate momentum in forecast revisions.
  • Our analytics content includes mean, median, high, low and standard deviation measures across estimate periods and windows. We also support KPI-level analytics through mean KPI, high KPI, low KPI, KPI standard deviation, normalization indicators, currencies and unit scales.
  • LSEG organises Estimate Analytics across tables including SmartEstimateLineItem, EstimateCluster, MeanEstimateSummary, SmartEstimateSummary, RecommendationSummary and CalculatedLongTermGrowth. We document 306 data dictionary rows to support integration of SmartEstimates, consensus summaries, surprise windows and recommendation analytics.
