Forward P/E

consensus EPS · fiscal year ending 2027-01-31
The gap between the two multiples is the consensus growth expectation: analysts' forward EPS of $2.30 implies -7.6% EPS decline vs the reported trailing $2.49.
At the dated quote price of $22.43, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2027-01-31 | $2.30 | $2.18 – $2.40 | 6 | 9.8x |
| 2028-01-31 | $2.37 | $2.23 – $2.52 | 6 | 9.5x |
| 2029-01-31 | $2.51 | $2.37 – $2.65 | 1 | 8.9x |
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.
