Why IAMGOLD Corp (USA) Stock Popped 10% This Morning
Shares of gold miner IAMGOLD (NYSE: IAG) jumped 10.4% in early-morning trading Wednesday, after it reported its operational and financial performance for third-quarter 2017. According to the Associated Press, IAMGOLD reported net income of $0.07 per share versus Wall Street analyst estimates of $0.02 per share for the quarter.

That's actually not quite correct. Reviewing IAMGOLD's report, available on its website, it turns out that what the gold miner actually reported was "adjusted net earnings" of $0.07, a non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) measure. Be that as it may, the number was more than twice the $0.03 in adjusted net earnings that IAMGOLD reported in the year-ago quarter -- so, an improvement.
