| Valuation ratio | Description | The company |

| P/S ratio | An rationale for the P/S ratio is that sales, as the top line in an income statement, are generally less subject to distortion or manipulation than other fundamentals such as EPS or book value. Sales are also more stable than earnings and never negative. | Edwards Lifesciences Corp. P/S ratio increased from Q2 2021 to Q3 2021 but then decreased significantly from Q3 2021 to Q4 2021. |
