Hi all,
What does "2018a" means in finance? I don't understand why there is an "a" at the end...

Actual numbers. 2018e is expected numbers.
Many thanks man
at the end of a number:
A is for Actual, this is usually used for past years, or the current year if it's Q4 and everything is locked in/super high revenue visibility
E is for Estimated, usually only used for current year
P is for Projected, used for future years
B is used for "Anno Bezos", a dark timeline when Amazon runs everything and we are forced to drink a nutrient slurry from rusty pipes as we toil deep in the AWS mines, mating only once every seven years in a pon farr ceremony.
B is rarely used except for in hard downside cases. Or pitches to Amazon.
Many thanks :) It really helps
