Eaton 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 Eaton's earnings grow at the 16.3% a year analysts expect to FY2028, then 15.0% a year, it would earn about 25.08 a share in FY2030. At the P/E it has traded at over the last five years (25.4 to 34.8) that is 636.91 to 872.91 a share, or 783.10 at its average P/E of 31.2. This is arithmetic on the analysts' estimates, not a prediction.
| Fiscal year | EPS | Bear | Base | Bull |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FY2026 | 13.73 | 348.81 | 428.88 | 478.06 |
| FY2027 | 16.29 | 413.75 | 508.72 | 567.05 |
| FY2028 | 18.96 | 481.60 | 592.14 | 660.04 |
| FY2029 (extrapolated) | 21.81 | 553.84 | 680.96 | 759.05 |
| FY2030 (extrapolated) | 25.08 | 636.91 | 783.10 | 872.91 |
Each year's EPS is the analysts' consensus to FY2028; the years after grow 15.0% 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 (25.4, 31.2, 34.8).
Is Eaton stock undervalued or overvalued?How does Arincen work out a stock's fair value? Fair value is our estimate of a share's price at the P/E the company usually trades at, with a low to high range around it.
Eaton's P/E of 34.8 is above the middle of its 5-year range (22.5 to 46.6, median 32.7). Analysts expect faster growth than in recent years, which can explain part of the high P/E. Buyers pay about the usual price for each point of growth: a PEG of 1.6 on expected growth against 1.3 on its median P/E and past five years' growth. At its usual P/E (32.7 × EPS of 10.03), Eaton's fair value is 328.27; the price, 349.11, is 6.3% above it. Its forward P/E, on the consensus for FY2026, is 25.4.
Fair value is the usual (median) P/E of the last five years times the earnings per share of the last twelve months; the ends of the bar are the same earnings at its lowest and highest P/E of those years (22.5 and 46.6). The price against its P/E range
