Fundamentals & Catalysts

  • Its forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 18.014286021067175 is lower than its current P/E ratio of 68.80, implying that analysts are expecting an increase in earnings.
  • The company's price/earnings-to-growth ratio (PEG Ratio), a widely used indicator of a stock's true value while also factoring in expected earnings growth, currently stands at -1.30.
