P/OP ratio Because P/E ratio is calculated using net income, the ratio can be sensitive to nonrecurring earnings and capital structure, analysts may use price to operating profit. Activision Blizzard Inc. P/OP ratio decreased from Q4 2022 to Q1 2023 but then slightly increased from Q1 2023 to Q2 2023.
