Event name is nice addition, but losing dates a problem. Hoping for a way to get old structure.

Probably Yahoo has broken their redesign rollout, because their Find earnings for symbol search doesn't work: https://finance.yahoo.com/calendar/earnings?symbol=MSFT

Looks like yahoo fixed their problem. yfinance works fine now. I suggest you close this issue.

[ValueRaider]

I suspect it will return, I've seen this alternative table randomly rarely over last few weeks. Yahoo is up to something...

[michaelmoopenn]

For some tickers, it works and some others it doesn't. At this time, ENB.TO works, TSLA still gives the issue.

[yunhongz]

It returned to normal, interesting!

[hjlgood]

Looks like Yahoo finance's earnings tab blew up again.

[EvanYu0816]

This works fine now, but it's also pulling up non-quarterly earnings.

Depending on how Yahoo Finance plans to move forward with the earnings table, can we please add an option in the future to filter out the non-quarterly earnings?

Right now, we can tell which ones are quarterly by the Company column:
https://finance.yahoo.com/calendar/earnings?symbol=MCD

However, this column is omitted in the get_earnings function.

[ValueRaider]

Keeping column Company is fine, but filtering rows should be optional in case algorithm has bug.

[tomatofrankie]

Having the issue starting from this week.

[kasaquan]

As of today, some tickers work perfectly fine, some tickers give the 'Earnings Date' KeyError.

when I tried to get the earnings of AI. https://finance.yahoo.com/calendar/earnings/?symbol=AI, yahoo may need some time to run js. I also tried selenium. It works but much slower.
