consensus EPS · fiscal year ending 2027-08-30
The gap between the two multiples is the consensus growth expectation: analysts' forward EPS of $174.86 implies +20.2% EPS growth vs the reported trailing $145.45.
At the dated quote price of $2844.31, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2027-08-30 | $174.86 | $162.30 – $182.47 | 20 | 16.3x |
| 2028-08-30 | $195.71 | $181.75 – $215.71 | 15 | 14.5x |
| 2029-08-30 | $223.19 | $210.76 – $235.71 | 3 | 12.7x |
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.
