Consumer Edge has launched Research Signal, a new analytics offering that provides investment firms with transaction-based revenue forecasts for publicly traded consumer companies. Designed to simplify earnings analysis, the solution combines Consumer Edge’s proprietary consumer spending data with analyst forecasts, historical back-testing, and company-specific insights in a single report. The platform eliminates the need for firms to rely on multiple data providers or maintain dedicated data science teams by delivering an integrated view of revenue expectations, Wall Street consensus comparisons, and over eight quarters of forecast accuracy. Research Signal also provides detailed transaction trends, average ticket movements, sales mix analysis across channels, geographies, income groups, and age demographics, along with competitive intelligence covering market share shifts, customer retention, and cross-shopping behavior.

Additionally, ticker-specific risk assessments help investors understand how Consumer Edge’s proprietary data applies to individual companies, enabling more informed decisions ahead of earnings announcements and market events. “Generating a transaction-based earnings view has historically required either a dedicated data science team or a patchwork of providers – Research Signal changes that,” said Bill Pecoriello, CEO, Consumer Edge. “It packages our proprietary signal with an analyst forecast, back tested track record and ticker-specific context into an accurate, easy to digest report. Whether a firm is positioning ahead of earnings, validating management commentary or monitoring competitive dynamics, Research Signal delivers precise, timely consumer spending trends for investors focused on the consumer sector.”
