Trailing P/E
7.0
reported TTM EPS
Forward P/E
12.9
consensus EPS · fiscal year ending 2027-09-27
The gap between the two multiples is the consensus growth expectation: analysts' forward EPS of $4.44 implies -46.0% EPS decline vs the reported trailing $8.22.
At the dated quote price of $57.25, each upcoming fiscal year's consensus EPS implies a different multiple — how quickly the price is "paid down" by expected earnings if the estimates hold.
| Fiscal year end | Consensus EPS | Estimate range | Analysts | Implied P/E |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2027-09-27 | $4.44 | $4.19 – $4.68 | 4 | 12.9x |
| 2028-09-27 | $5.61 | $5.55 – $5.69 | 3 | 10.2x |
| 2029-09-27 | $6.61 | $6.47 – $6.71 | 1 | 8.7x |
Source: FMP analyst consensus estimates, refreshed with the daily precompute. "n/m" = the consensus EPS is not positive, so a multiple is undefined. There is no forward P/E history chart here because charting one would require the estimates as they stood in the past, which we do not store — see the trailing P/E history for how the realized multiple has moved.
PE Ratio = Share Price / Diluted EPS (TTM)
The price-to-earnings ratio measures how much investors pay for each dollar of trailing earnings. A lower PE can indicate a cheaper valuation; a higher PE implies higher growth expectations.
