Below Their Own Average
26 S&P 500 companies whose price-to-earnings ratio is at least 25% below its own 10-year median, while trailing earnings rose at least 5%.
What this list is
A company's P/E moves for two reasons: its price changes, or its earnings do. This list holds the second one still — every company on it earns more than it did a year ago — and asks whether the price has kept up. For these 26, the market is paying at least 25% less per dollar of earnings than it usually has over the past 10 years.
A low multiple is not a bargain by itself. It can mean the market expects earnings to fall, or that the business has changed since the multiples in its history were set. The list says where each company sits against its own past; it does not say what it is worth.

- P/E is the closing share price over trailing-twelve-month earnings per share, as reported in the company's SEC filings.
- The median uses one reading per month over the past 10 years, leaving out months when earnings were negative.
- The current P/E uses the close of Aug 31, 2026, the last day of the latest complete month.
- Earnings growth compares trailing earnings per share with the figure a year earlier.
- Set apart: earnings more than doubled; a ten-year median above 50; real estate investment trusts.
Where the numbers come from
Earnings per share are taken from each company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, summed over the last four reported quarters. Prices are closing prices. The P/E history is the same series the site charts for every company, so any row can be checked against its chart. Nothing here is an estimate, a consensus number, or a projection.
