consensus next-FY EPS
The gap between the two multiples is the consensus growth expectation: analysts' forward EPS of $15.14 implies +164.7% EPS growth vs the reported trailing $5.72.
At today's $393.22 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-10-31 | $15.14 | $14.92 – $15.22 | 13 | 26.0x |
| 2027-10-31 | $17.63 | $17.00 – $18.17 | 17 | 22.3x |
| 2028-10-31 | $20.63 | $13.41 – $32.32 | 11 | 19.1x |
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.
