consensus next-FY EPS
The gap between the two multiples is the consensus growth expectation: analysts' forward EPS of $9.99 implies -41.5% EPS decline vs the reported trailing $17.08.
At today's $519.80 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 | $18.50 | $11.59 – $22.51 | 11 | 28.1x |
| 2028-06-27 | $29.18 | $22.17 – $36.17 | 5 | 17.8x |
| 2029-06-27 | $37.19 | $29.65 – $45.04 | 1 | 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.
