welcome back,

A good primer on consolidated vs stand alone earnings which is very important for any investor. On the +ve side too consolidated becomes important if the subsidiary is making large profits too. Did not know that con. earnings are reported once a year and that they may not be audited too. Have seen many co’s where the difference in cons vs standalone were stark and what appeared a good stock suddenly turns dud once consol earnings are accounted for. Thanks.
