consensus EPS · fiscal year ending 2026-11-01
The gap between the two multiples is the consensus growth expectation: analysts' forward EPS of $7.17 implies +60.0% EPS growth vs the reported trailing $4.48.
At the dated quote price of $357.17, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-11-01 | $7.17 | $6.69 – $7.30 | 11 | 49.8x |
| 2027-11-01 | $11.74 | $7.84 – $12.80 | 8 | 30.4x |
| 2028-11-01 | $16.77 | $11.84 – $20.42 | 6 | 21.3x |
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.
