About Analyst Ratings

About Analyst Ratings
Analyst ratings represent professional recommendations - Buy, Hold, or Sell - issued for a specific stock. Each rating reflects the analyst’s view at the time of publication and is tracked to measure historical performance.
Ratings Count
The total number of analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, and Sell) issued for the stock. This includes all published recommendations, even those not used in performance calculations.
Performance Calculation
To ensure accuracy and prevent duplication, only certain ratings are included in performance metrics:
•  
One rating per analyst per month: If an analyst publishes more than one rating in a month, only the first is counted.
•  
Updated ratings end prior ones: If the analyst changes their stance during that month (for example, from Buy to Sell), performance tracking for the earlier rating stops immediately on the update date, and the new rating begins tracking from that point forward.
•  
Hold ratings excluded: Hold recommendations are displayed on the chart but are not counted in performance or return calculations.
Example
If an analyst rates a stock Buy on April 1 and changes it to Sell on April 20, the Buy rating’s performance is measured from April 1 to April 20. From April 20 onward, only the Sell rating is tracked.
Success Rate
Indicates the percentage of performance-accounted ratings that generated a positive return during their active period. For example, if 6 out of 17 accounted ratings were profitable, the success rate is 35%.
Average Return
Represents the mean return per active rating - showing the average gain or loss an analyst’s recommendation produced while it was active.

            Disclaimer: The TipRanks Smart Score performance is based on backtested results. Backtested performance is not an indicator of future actual results. The results reflect performance of a strategy not historically offered to investors and does not represent returns that any investor actually attained. Backtested results are calculated by the retroactive application of a model constructed on the basis of historical data and based on assumptions integral to the model which may or may not be testable and are subject to losses. General assumptions include: XYZ firm would have been able to purchase the securities recommended by the model and the markets were sufficiently liquid to permit all trading. Changes in these assumptions may have a material impact on the backtested returns presented. Certain assumptions have been made for modeling purposes and are unlikely to be realized. No representations and warranties are made as to the reasonableness of the assumptions. This information is provided for illustrative purposes only. Backtested performance is developed with the benefit of hindsight and has inherent limitations. Specifically, backtested results do not reflect actual trading or the effect of material economic and market factors on the decision-making process. Since trades have not actually been executed, results may have under- or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity, and may not reflect the impact that certain economic or market factors may have had on the decision-making process. Further, backtesting allows the security selection methodology to be adjusted until past returns are maximized. Actual performance may differ significantly from backtested performance. Backtested results are adjusted to reflect the reinvestment of dividends and other income and, except where otherwise indicated, are presented gross-of fees and do not include the effect of backtested transaction costs, management fees, performance fees or expenses, if applicable. Please note all regulatory considerations regarding the presentation of fees must be taken into account. No cash balance or cash flow is included in the calculation.
