Over the last 12 quarters with a usable EPS surprise, GLW beat the consensus estimate 9 times (75%), missed 2 and landed in line 1. It has beaten estimates in each of the last 8 counted quarters.
Across its last 12 quarters with a measured reaction, GLW moved an average of ±5.7% in the first session after reporting. It closed higher 42% of the time; the largest gain was 11.9% and the largest drop -12.1%.
Options currently price a move of about ±9.3% (nearest at-the-money straddle that expires after the report). It measures the size of the expected move, not its direction. That is 1.62x its average historical move of ±5.7%, so options look expensive relative to history.
GLW fell in the first session after 5 of its last 9 EPS beats (56%). A beat that was already priced in, or weaker guidance, can send a stock lower. In 4 of the 5 of those falls where price data is available, the stock had already risen before the report.
Across its last 12 quarters with price data, GLW moved an average of +2.6% in the 20 trading sessions before reporting and was higher in 67% of them. After a run-up of 3% or more (7 quarters), it fell the next day 71% of the time, averaging -1.5%. After a drop of 3% or more (3 quarters), it rose the next day 33% of the time, averaging -3.8%. This describes past reports; it is not a forecast.
In 12 reports GLW opened at least 1% away from the previous close. It gave back half or more of that gap by the close 3 of 12 times (25%), and fully reversed 2 times. A fade means the opening move was partly undone during the first session.
