[11]
hello everyone hi welcome to the channel of WallStreetmojo friends will be able
[15]
to learn a topic a concept that is on trailing PE was his forward B so what
[21]
exactly is trailing PE what exactly is the forward be that's what we are going
[24]
to discuss over here we'll start with the trailing PV okay now trailing PE is
[31]
where we use the historical earnings remember one thing historical earning
[37]
per share in the denominator so you can say EPS and trailing PE ratio this
[45]
basically the formula you know it's something said sort of it's like this is
[50]
equal to its price per share divided by the EPS over the previous 12 months okay
[62]
so let's take one trailing PE example and understand let's calculate the
[67]
trailing PE of Amazon see Amazon current share price Amazon current share
[74]
price that is p0 is 1586.51 as on this is as on 20th march 2018
[80]
okay now let's say the earning per share faster one year okay
[90]
based on various quarters and all let's say the EPS TTM it is known as for
[97]
trailing PE is a let's say $4.576 okay so in that scenario
[104]
what is going to be a trailing PE because this EPS is for your 12 months okay so
[110]
it's p 0 divided by your EPS that will give you 346.7X
[114]
and now that is a PE DDM so this is your trailing PE now the next thing
[120]
that we are going to discuss is the forward what is the forward PE ratio so
[126]
the forward PE ratio is basically the price per share divided by the
[132]
forecasted it is a price per share divided by the forecasted EPS right
[139]
let's take another example for forward would be let's say the same current
[144]
price is 1586.51 and let's
[149]
say the EPS for the December 2018 and year ending December 19 is eight point
[158]
$8.31 and $15.39 so the forward PE ratio for 2018 is
[166]
going to be your price divided by December 2018 the EPS that is a forward
[173]
PE and in case of December 19 it's going to be 103.08X
[180]
so what exactly is the difference between the trailing
[183]
and the forward
[184]
PE and over here we'll write as the forward PE so as you can you know note
[191]
that you know the key difference between the two is the EPS that has been used
[196]
now for trailing PE for trailing PE we use the historical EPS what do we use
[206]
historical EPS whereas for the for T we use the EPS that has been forecasted
[213]
right now trailing PE versus forward PE example that we are going to take C
[219]
trailing theory uses the historical EPS while the forward PE uses the
[223]
forecaster EPS let's look at another example to calculate the trailing verses
[227]
forward PE now there's this company called AAA which has the 12 months
[231]
EPS offer $10 ten and its current market price that is p0 is a $234 so the
[242]
trailing 12 months EPS is going to be $234 price divided by earnings that's
[248]
23.4X likewise let's calculate the forward PE returning of
[252]
AAA company a company is AAA 2016 let's say estimate estimated EPS is
[260]
let's say $11 and the current price p0 is $234 so the forward PE earning ratio
[270]
the forward PE ratio formula is going to be $234 divided by the
[278]
share price that will give you 21.3 X now what are
[283]
the important points that one needs to note while in interpreting or
[286]
calculating trading versus forward PE ratio see some of the things that you
[290]
need to consider regarding trailing PE ratio versus forward PE ratio is that
[293]
you know if the EPS is expected to grow okay then the forward PE ratio will be
[303]
lower than the historical or the trailing PE you can say or the trailing
[310]
PE ratio now from the example that we learned you know there is an increase in
[318]
the EPS and you know hence the forward PE ratio is lower than the trailing PE
[322]
ratio second on the other hand if the EPS is expected to decrease then you
[329]
will note that the forward PE ratio okay will be higher or greater than the
[335]
trailing PE ratio now you need to note that the forward PE only forecast the
[343]
forward PE only forecast the EPS of 2016 or maybe no 2017 whereas the stock price
[352]
will reflect the earning per earning growth prospects for in I mean
[357]
far into the future state but that's one big thing that you need to consider
[361]
fourth one should not only compare the trailing ratio trailing ratio for the
[366]
valuation comparison between the two companies but also look at the forward
[372]
PE also forward PE ratio or two to focus on the relative value whether the
[380]
PE difference reflects the company's long term growth prospects and the financial
[383]
stability
