consensus next-FY EPS
The gap between the two multiples is the consensus growth expectation: analysts' forward EPS of $4.59 implies +25.4% EPS growth vs the reported trailing $3.66.
At today's $81.58 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2027-06-27 | $5.07 | $4.82 – $5.19 | 8 | 16.1x |
| 2028-06-27 | $5.41 | $5.13 – $5.83 | 8 | 15.1x |
| 2029-06-27 | $5.84 | $5.61 – $6.02 | 4 | 14.0x |
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.
