BMO = before the open, AMC = after the close. Reaction: the first session that could trade on the report (the same day for BMO, the next session for AMC) against the close before it; "vs SPY" subtracts the S&P 500 over the same session. Revenue surprise needs the estimate from before the report, so it starts with the reports Wallsti saw coming.
