Trailing P/E
36.1
reported TTM EPS
Forward P/E
21.6
consensus next-FY EPS
The gap between the two multiples is the consensus growth expectation: analysts' forward EPS of $2.69 implies +67.1% EPS growth vs the reported trailing $1.61.
At today's $57.78 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2027-02-28 | $2.71 | $2.50 – $2.98 | 12 | 21.3x |
| 2028-02-28 | $3.11 | $2.70 – $3.40 | 12 | 18.6x |
| 2029-02-28 | $3.00 | $1.96 – $4.26 | 5 | 19.3x |
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.
