consensus EPS · fiscal year ending 2027-04-30
The gap between the two multiples is the consensus growth expectation: analysts' forward EPS of $21.35 implies +2.8% EPS growth vs the reported trailing $20.76.
At the dated quote price of $621.61, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2027-04-30 | $21.35 | $20.35 – $21.91 | 9 | 29.1x |
| 2028-04-30 | $23.43 | $22.69 – $23.98 | 11 | 26.5x |
| 2029-04-30 | $26.24 | $24.45 – $28.19 | 8 | 23.7x |
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.
