How to read this comparison
Up to eight covered companies in the same industry, largest market value first.
P/S divides the stock market value by revenue from the previous twelve months. The middle peer reading excludes MRK and unavailable values.
Own 5-year rank compares each stock with its available weekly readings within the last five years. At least 26 usable weeks are required. A rank of 20% means its current multiple is above 20% of its past readings. It is not a rank against the other stocks in this table.
Dates show data updates; the latest available weekly observation can differ between stocks. Different growth rates, margins and financial risks can explain different multiples. Missing or non-positive denominators are left unranked.
