Definition
The company that runs the London Stock Exchange and a large financial data business. When Reuters reports what analysts expected a company to earn, the figure usually comes from LSEG's data.
The story
After the close on Nov 4, 2026, Arm reported fiscal second-quarter revenue of $1.44 billion, above the $1.38 billion analysts expected according to LSEG data (Reuters). That "expected" number is the bar every earnings report is measured against.
Why markets watch it
Earnings beats and misses are judged against an average of analysts' estimates, and naming who compiled it tells you where the bar came from.
