consensus next-FY EPS
The gap between the two multiples is the consensus growth expectation: analysts' forward EPS of $18.43 implies +9.8% EPS growth vs the reported trailing $16.78.
At today's $298.20 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-12-31 | $18.43 | $17.71 – $19.26 | 10 | 16.2x |
| 2027-12-31 | $20.86 | $19.51 – $21.79 | 10 | 14.3x |
| 2028-12-31 | $24.27 | $21.08 – $28.55 | 9 | 12.3x |
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.
