Unified Resolution Criteria (Consistent across platforms)

Both platforms utilize identical resolution criteria, relying on the same EPS threshold, source hierarchy, and timing constraints.Primary resolution logic: M&T Bank’s official earnings documents, with SeekingAlpha as a backup.

Core resolution logic:

Resolution is based on GAAP EPS (diluted if available, otherwise basic).
The market resolves 'Yes' if GAAP EPS > $5.00.
The market resolves 'No' if GAAP EPS <= $5.00.
SeekingAlpha is used if official documents lack GAAP EPS.
The market resolves to 'No' if earnings are not released within 45 calendar days of the estimated earnings date (October 16, 2026).

Edge cases & clarifications:

No GAAP EPS Reported: If M&T Bank does not report GAAP EPS, the market will resolve based on the GAAP EPS figure reported by SeekingAlpha. If SeekingAlpha does not publish a GAAP EPS figure within 96 hours of market close on the earnings announcement day, the market will resolve to 'No'.
Earnings Release Delay: If M&T Bank does not release earnings within 45 calendar days of the estimated earnings date (October 16, 2026), the market will resolve to 'No'.
Restatements: Subsequent restatements are generally not considered, except for obvious and immediate errors (e.g., 'fat finger' mistakes).

Timing: Resolution will occur after M&T Bank releases its quarterly earnings report and the relevant GAAP EPS figure is available, or after the 45-day delay period has elapsed.Our PredictionHero Resolution Divergence Alerts (RDA) are there to help users identify potential differences across platforms.
