On this page we presented the Avis Budget Gr Historical PE Ratio information for Avis Budget Gr' stock. The average CAR historical PE based on using the annualized quarterly earnings result at each measurement period (for the "E" in the PE calculation; and the closing price on earnings date as the "P") is 21.4. Meanwhile, using the trailing twelve month (TTM) quarterly earnings result as our method of calculation the "E" value at each measurement period, the average CAR historical PE based on this TTM earnings result method is 12.1. Note: any PE calculations involving negative earnings were discarded as not meaningful.

Let's now compare this CAR historical PE result, against the recent PE: when this page was posted on 8/1/2023, the most recent closing price for CAR had been 226.76, and the most recent quarterly earnings result, annualized, was 44.04. Meanwhile, the most recent TTM earnings summed to 50.89. From these numbers, we calculate the recent CAR PE on 8/1/2023 based on annualized quarterly EPS was 5.1. Based on CAR's history, that recent PE is low relative to the historical average, with the recent PE 76.2% lower than the historical average PE across our data set for Avis Budget Gr. Looking at the recent CAR PE on 8/1/2023 based on TTM EPS, we calculate the ratio at 4.5. Based on CAR's history, that recent PE is low relative to the historical average, with the recent PE 62.8% lower than the average PE across our Avis Budget Gr data set with TTM EPS used in the calculation at each period.

Another interesting CAR historical PE Ratio calculation we look at is to take the median earnings per share of the last four quarters for CAR, and then annualize the resulting value... with that annualized number then being used in the PE calculation. To walk through this math for CAR, we start with the past four EPS numbers and we first sort them from lowest to highest: 7.72, 10.46, 11.01, and 21.70. We then toss out the highest and lowest result, and then take the average of those two middle numbers — 10.46 and 11.01 — which gives us the median of 10.73. Basically the way to think about this 10.73 number is this: for the trailing four earnings reports, 10.73 marks the "middle ground" number where CAR has reported a value higher than 10.73 half the time, and has reported a value lower than 10.73 half the time. Annualizing that median value then gets us to 42.92/share, which we use as the denominator in our next PE calculation. With 226.76 as the numerator (as of 8/1/2023), the calculation is then 226.76 / 42.92 = 5.3 as the CAR PE ratio as of 8/1/2023, based on that annualized median value we calculated.
