consensus EPS · fiscal year ending 2027-01-25
The gap between the two multiples is the consensus growth expectation: analysts' forward EPS of $3.48 implies +130.5% EPS growth vs the reported trailing $1.51.
At the dated quote price of $194.88, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2027-01-25 | $3.48 | $3.38 – $3.69 | 10 | 56.0x |
| 2028-01-25 | $5.86 | $5.22 – $6.12 | 10 | 33.3x |
| 2029-01-25 | $8.17 | $6.88 – $9.78 | 4 | 23.9x |
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.
