overperforms
Surpasses the forecast
Overperforms means to do better than expected or predicted.
A stock overperforms when it beats market forecasts; an athlete overperforms when they exceed their usual stats.
The word implies a baseline—you can only overperform relative to some standard: The movie overperformed at the box office, She consistently overperforms on standardized tests.
