reported TTM EPS
Forward P/E
15.0
consensus EPS · fiscal year ending 2026-12-28
The gap between the two multiples is the consensus growth expectation: analysts' forward EPS of $1.18 implies +35.6% EPS growth vs the reported trailing $0.87.
At the dated quote price of $17.67, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-12-28 | $1.18 | $1.05 – $1.26 | 8 | 15.0x |
| 2027-12-28 | $1.25 | $1.18 – $1.34 | 8 | 14.2x |
| 2028-12-28 | $1.33 | $1.28 – $1.40 | 3 | 13.2x |
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.
