consensus next-FY EPS
The gap between the two multiples is the consensus growth expectation: analysts' forward EPS of $25.69 implies -3.7% EPS decline vs the reported trailing $26.68.
At today's $521.46 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 | $28.79 | $28.58 – $29.09 | 16 | 18.1x |
| 2028-01-31 | $31.93 | $31.50 – $32.76 | 16 | 16.3x |
| 2029-01-31 | $35.28 | $32.24 – $36.66 | 9 | 14.8x |
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.
