Price-to-earnings (P/E)
37.2×The Nov 5 close ÷ diluted EPS over the last 12 months ($7.84)
The range covers daily P/E ratios from Oct 27, 2021 to Nov 5, 2026, each based on the previous 12 months of earnings.
AVGO trades at 37.2× its earnings over the last 12 months, below its 5-year median of 48.8×. In plain terms, buyers are paying about $37 for each $1 of profit from the past year. How to read P/E
Other valuation measures
- 15.6×Last 12 months’ revenue; market cap as of Nov 5, 2026
Market value on Nov 5, 2026 divided by revenue over the last 12 months. Useful when earnings are small or negative.
P/S = Market cap ÷ Revenue (last 12 months)Price-to-sales ratio - 13.9×Book value as of Aug 2, 2026
Price relative to accounting equity (book value) per share on the Aug 2, 2026 balance sheet. Asset-light companies often trade far above book value.
P/B = Price ÷ Book value per sharePrice-to-book ratio - 27.2×Last 12 months’ EBITDA; EV as of Nov 5, 2026
Enterprise value on Nov 5, 2026 divided by EBITDA over the last 12 months. It compares companies with different amounts of debt.
EV/EBITDA = Enterprise value ÷ EBITDA (last 12 months)EV/EBITDA explained - 0.37Last 12 months’ EPS growth
The P/E divided by the growth in diluted EPS over the last 12 months (+100.0% on the 12 months before). It looks backward: near 1 means the P/E roughly matches last year’s growth. Sites that use analysts’ growth forecasts show a different PEG.
PEG = P/E ÷ EPS growth (%) = 37.2 ÷ 100.0 - 2.84%Last 12 months’ free cash flow; market cap as of Nov 5, 2026
Free cash flow over the last 12 months as a share of the company’s market value on Nov 5, 2026: the cash the business generated for each dollar of stock.
