Intercontinental Exchange stock price 2026–2030: scenarios
If Intercontinental Exchange's earnings keep growing at the 13.0% a year analysts expect to FY2028, it would earn about 12.80 a share in FY2030. At the P/E it has traded at over the last five years (18.9 to 39.6) that is 242.53 to 507.12 a share, or 379.22 at its average P/E of 29.6. This is arithmetic on the analysts' estimates, not a prediction.
| Fiscal year | EPS | Bear | Base | Bull |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FY2026 | 8.19 | 155.12 | 242.56 | 324.36 |
| FY2027 | 8.94 | 169.38 | 264.85 | 354.18 |
| FY2028 | 10.03 | 189.95 | 297.00 | 397.17 |
| FY2029 (extrapolated) | 11.33 | 214.63 | 335.60 | 448.79 |
| FY2030 (extrapolated) | 12.80 | 242.53 | 379.22 | 507.12 |
Each year's EPS is the analysts' consensus to FY2028; the years after continue its 13.0% a year. Bear, base and bull apply the lowest, average and highest P/E of the last five fiscal year ends (18.9, 29.6, 39.6).
Is Intercontinental Exchange stock undervalued or overvalued?
Intercontinental Exchange's P/E of 23.4 is around the middle of its 5-year range (12.5 to 45.5, median 23.2). It is in line with its own history. Buyers pay less for each point of growth than usual: a PEG of 1.2 on expected growth against 2.6 on its median P/E and past five years' growth. At its usual P/E (24.5 × EPS of 6.82), Intercontinental Exchange's fair value is 167.39, close to the price of 172.29. The EPS is without 0.54 a share of one-off gains in its other income, which the business does not repeat. Its forward P/E, on the consensus for FY2026, is 21.0.
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 (19.3 and 32.7). The price against its P/E range
