What is the definition of EPS Gwth %?
The Growth in Earnings per share as a percentage change over the last trailing twelve month period. Earnings-per-share growth gives a good picture of the rate at which a company has grown its profitability.
One of the important differences vs. net-income growth rates is that EPS growth reflects the dilution that occurs from new stock issuance, the exercise of employee stock options, warrants, convertible securities, and share repurchases.
Stocks with higher earnings-per-share growth rates are generally more desired by investors than those with slower earnings-per-share growth rates, though in general high growth rates have a tendency to revert over the longer term to more stable growth rates.
