consensus next-FY EPS
The gap between the two multiples is the consensus growth expectation: analysts' forward EPS of $7.40 implies +13.0% EPS growth vs the reported trailing $6.55.
At today's $82.80 close, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2027-05-30 | $1.61 | $1.57 – $1.65 | 3 | 51.3x |
| 2028-05-30 | $3.80 | $3.78 – $3.82 | 3 | 21.8x |
| 2029-05-30 | $4.76 | $4.44 – $5.22 | 1 | 17.4x |
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.
