Trailing P/E
17.1
reported TTM EPS
Forward P/E
14.9
consensus EPS · fiscal year ending 2026-12-31
The gap between the two multiples is the consensus growth expectation: analysts' forward EPS of $4.02 implies +14.5% EPS growth vs the reported trailing $3.51.
At the dated quote price of $59.90, 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 | $4.02 | $3.96 – $4.07 | 9 | 14.9x |
| 2027-12-31 | $4.52 | $4.42 – $4.57 | 9 | 13.3x |
| 2028-12-31 | $5.03 | $4.82 – $5.19 | 3 | 11.9x |
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.
