consensus next-FY EPS
The gap between the two multiples is the consensus growth expectation: analysts' forward EPS of $23.10 implies -8.1% EPS decline vs the reported trailing $25.14.
At today's $492.91 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-12-27 | $23.10 | $22.44 – $23.43 | 5 | 21.3x |
| 2027-12-27 | $25.86 | $24.16 – $27.09 | 5 | 19.1x |
| 2028-12-27 | $29.00 | $28.37 – $29.57 | 1 | 17.0x |
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.
