Valuation ratio Description The company
P/E ratio The P/E ratio tells analyst how much an investor in common stock pays per dollar of current earnings. McKesson Corp. P/E ratio increased from 2014 to 2015 but then decreased significantly from 2015 to 2016.
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. McKesson Corp. P/OP ratio increased from 2014 to 2015 but then decreased significantly from 2015 to 2016.
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.
