European Q1 2016 earnings season: Assessing the post-Brexit landscape

• With 410 companies in the Euro Stoxx 600 now having reported, we estimate that European earnings per share (EPS) for the first quarter of 2016 declined by 16.0% year on year (y/y). But this headline number is badly distorted by the sharp falls in just
