Bristol-Myers Squibb 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 Bristol-Myers Squibb's earnings keep growing at the -4.9% a year analysts expect to FY2028, it would earn about 4.79 a share in FY2030. At the P/E it has traded at over the last five years (13.2 to 24.2) that is 63.38 to 116.11 a share, or 83.27 at its average P/E of 17.4. This is arithmetic on the analysts' estimates, not a prediction.
| Fiscal year | EPS | Bear | Base | Bull |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FY2026 | 6.44 | 85.21 | 111.95 | 156.11 |
| FY2027 | 6.70 | 88.59 | 116.39 | 162.29 |
| FY2028 | 5.30 | 70.03 | 92.00 | 128.29 |
| FY2029 (extrapolated) | 5.04 | 66.62 | 87.53 | 122.05 |
| FY2030 (extrapolated) | 4.79 | 63.38 | 83.27 | 116.11 |
Each year's EPS is the analysts' consensus to FY2028; the years after grow -4.9% 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 (13.2, 17.4, 24.2).
