Twilio Inc (NYSE:TWLO) has earnings due out 2018-11-06, after the market closes. As always, the results relative to analyst estimates as well as guidance will drive the stock.We do note how tight the range is for revenue and EPS estimates, meaning either Wall Street has this name figured out, or this is room for a surprise. We'll see below that the difference between the average current estimate for revenue and the highest estimate is just $1.7 million on a $150+ million piece of data. The same goes for EPS estimates -- very tight which means a very accurate Wall Street or room for a surprise.
Ultimately those who know the stock will be looking for news on the uptake of Twilio Flex, the contact center application platform.
The size of the developer community is another data point to watch, and of course, the two revenue drivers: new customer acquisition, and the amount current customers are growing. It's this two headed giant for revenue growth that has Twilio bulls so excited and the stock rising so sharply since IPO.
