jian, Thomson/Reuters also has FY16consensus EPS of 18.2 cps. But my last save of the data in mid-Sept had 18.9 cps (not 19.6cps). Meanwhile, consensus target price increased slightly from $3.43 to currently $3.50. Broker recommendations haven't changed from Sept to now. 4 out of 6 brokers covered have a buy, one has the weaker outperform recommendation, and the remaining broker has a hold.
FY17 consensus EPS is also a bit lower than previously, but FY18 is now much higher -- but who can trust broker guesstimates three years out!
Sometimes broker consensus changes can be due to the addition and removal of brokers. Bloomberg and Thomson/Reuters can be slow to remove data from brokers who are no longer covering the stock.
