Baidu stock price 2026–2030: scenariosHow are the stock price scenarios calculated? Bear, base and bull prices for the years ahead: the analysts' EPS estimates times the lowest, average and highest P/E of the stock today and at its last five year ends, or of its peers.
If Baidu's earnings keep growing at the 2.0% a year analysts expect to FY2028, it would earn about 8.32 a share in FY2030. At the P/E it has traded at over the last five years (9.3 to 39.4) that is 77.01 to 328.18 a share, or 201.42 at its average P/E of 24.2. This is arithmetic on the analysts' estimates, not a prediction.
| Fiscal year | EPS | Bear | Base | Bull |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FY2026 | 5.33 | 49.33 | 129.01 | 210.20 |
| FY2027 | 6.55 | 60.66 | 158.64 | 258.48 |
| FY2028 | 7.99 | 74.00 | 193.54 | 315.34 |
| FY2029 (extrapolated) | 8.16 | 75.49 | 197.44 | 321.70 |
| FY2030 (extrapolated) | 8.32 | 77.01 | 201.42 | 328.18 |
Each year's EPS is the analysts' consensus to FY2028; the years after grow 2.0% a year (the analysts' growth, at most 15%). Bear, base and bull apply the lowest, average and highest P/E of today and the last five fiscal year ends, leaving out any above 60, the mark of a year of collapsed earnings (9.3, 24.2, 39.4).
