What is PayPal Holdings's forward P/E?

PayPal Holdings's forward P/E is 10.07: today's price over the analysts' average EPS estimate for the next twelve months, the earnings expected rather than those reported. By fiscal year, it trades at 10.6 times its FY2026 earnings and 10.0 times its FY2027 earnings.

What is PayPal Holdings's PEG ratio?

PayPal Holdings's PEG ratio is 2.27: its P/E of 11.23 over the 5.0% a year the analysts expect its earnings per share to grow from FY2025 to FY2030. Around 1 is often read as a P/E in line with the growth; above it, the price asks for more.

PayPal Holdings P/E ratioWhat is the P/E ratio? The P/E ratio divides a share's price by its earnings per share over the last year: what you pay for each dollar of profit.

PayPal Holdings's P/E ratio is 11.23: its share price of 59.28 over its earnings per share of 5.28 over the last twelve months.

Today: 11.23
Forward P/E, next 12 months: 10.07
PEG ratio: 2.27
Median, 5 years: 11.23
Low, 5 years: 11.14
High, 5 years: 11.39

P/E ratio = price ÷ EPS (last 12 months) = 59.28 ÷ 5.28 = 11.23

Each day's closing price over the earnings per share of the last four quarters reported by that day (basic EPS, adjusted for splits). The P/E moves with the price every day and with the earnings at each report.

The forward P/E divides the price by the analysts' average EPS estimate for the next twelve months: the fiscal year in progress for the months left in it, the next one for the rest. For past days it uses each year's latest estimate, as the estimates of the time were not recorded (we keep a daily copy from November 2026), so the past line reads the price against the earnings expected by the time each year was reported.

Is PayPal Holdings's P/E high compared with its own history?Is the P/E high or low for this stock? Today's P/E against every daily P/E of the stock's last 5 years, with the growth analysts expect: whether the stock is expensive or cheap compared with itself, and whether its growth explains it.

PayPal Holdings's P/E of 11.2 is around the middle of its 5-year range (11.1 to 11.4, median 11.2). It is within 5% of its 5-year high. It is in line with its own history.

Each line is the earnings per share of the day times one P/E of the last five years: the price near the top line is near the most it was paid for those earnings, near the bottom line the least.

Buyers pay more for each point of growth than usual: a PEG of 1.9 on expected growth against 1.3 on its median P/E and past five years' growth.

What changed in 5 years

Operating margin is higher than in FY2020: ⁦18.3%⁩ against ⁦15.3%⁩.
Unusual tax: FY2021 at ⁦-1.7%⁩, FY2022 at ⁦28.1%⁩ against a usual ⁦19.3%⁩, which moves that year's profit and the P/E readings that include it.
Other Value Added Services grew from ⁦7.2%⁩ of revenue in FY2020 to ⁦10.2%⁩ in FY2025.
Since 4 November 2026 the price has changed ⁦−1.5%⁩: earnings per share ⁦+0.0%⁩ and the P/E ⁦−1.5%⁩.

A P/E is compared with the stock's own last five years, not with other companies. Why the market pays more or less (news, rates, the sector) is not in these figures.
