consensus next-FY EPS
The gap between the two multiples is the consensus growth expectation: analysts' forward EPS of $1.16 implies +6.4% EPS growth vs the reported trailing $1.09.
At today's $47.79 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 | $1.16 | $0.59 – $1.30 | 10 | 41.3x |
| 2027-12-31 | $1.31 | $0.65 – $1.59 | 12 | 36.5x |
| 2028-12-31 | $1.47 | $1.41 – $1.52 | 8 | 32.6x |
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.
