Trailing P/E
8.2
reported TTM EPS
Forward P/E
13.9
consensus next-FY EPS
The gap between the two multiples is the consensus growth expectation: analysts' forward EPS of $1.40 implies -41.4% EPS decline vs the reported trailing $2.39.
At today's $19.50 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2027-01-31 | $1.43 | $1.30 – $1.60 | 8 | 13.6x |
| 2028-01-31 | $1.49 | $1.24 – $1.72 | 8 | 13.1x |
| 2029-01-31 | $1.50 | $1.45 – $1.55 | 1 | 13.0x |
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.
