EPS and Financials for TSM are wrong

Crimson Zebra

Looking at Financials for TSM. noticed EPS values are different from Financials to Estimates / Actual s. Checked with Yahoo also slightly different but closer to the estimates / actual s than the Financials (Highlights, Income ) etc.. Was hoping someone could take a look and confirm.

EPS data is completely off for Chinese stocks

Positive Bobolink

EPS appears messed up on both HK and ADR listings. Could be related to issues in ADRs only. See example screenshots of $BABA (ADR) + $9988.HK.
Also wrong for:
$NTES (ADR),
$TECHY (American OTC) - I think it’s correct for Tencent’s HK listing.
$BIDU (ADR) + $9888.HK

Wrong market cap/conversions on ADR EG TSM

TSM in 20F filing has 25.93B common shares or 5.186B ADR Equivalent and $150/sh ADR px = 775B MKT CAP. However Koyfin has 635B as current market cap. Something is wrong with market Cap value and there should be somewhere to state ADRs vs common. Its very confusing on the overview page to show the common shares out for an ADR.

TSM EPS is wrong

Colorful Cheetah

TSM EPS is 1.05$ which is wrong for ADS - american depositary shares should have EPS of 5.14.

The P/E is correct though at 21.

Maria Karpenko ok, I know what the issue is. 
In their report, both values are stated. But koyfin uses the wrong one.
But TSM is the symbol for the American depositary shares, so the Earnings per ADR should be used, not Earnings per Share (as that would be TSMC - the shares listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange).

Colorful Cheetah: thank you for the detailed explanation and for providing the screenshots.

Our team is aware of this issue, and I will inform you as soon as it is resolved.

Colorful Cheetah

Maria Karpenko: Do you have an issue id I can track? Or an estimated fix date?

I need to know if I need to alter my spreadsheets in case it takes too long.

Maria Karpenko

Colorful Cheetah: sorry, I don't have an exact date at the moment.

I'll update you once the fix is confirmed.

Colorful Cheetah

Maria Karpenko: Hi Maria, can I get a rough estimate? I need to know whether the timeline for a fix is in the days or weeks. There's no way I can trust any data for ADR right now and I want to know whether I should work on a fix on my end inside my sheets.

Maria Karpenko

Colorful Cheetah: sorry for the delay here!
We don't have an estimated time for resolving the issue yet. This problem is complex and will take time to address. We'll post an update as soon as it's available.
Thanks for your patience and understanding!
