Key Metrics
Powered by EODHDP/E (TTM)
21.8
P/E (Price-to-Earnings)Shows how much investors pay for each $1 of profit. We display the TTM P/E (Trailing Twelve Months) which uses actual earnings from the last 4 quarters. This is more reliable than Forward P/E which uses analyst estimates.
Calculation: 143.84 ÷ 6.62 = 21.8
TTM period through: 2026-06-30
Forward P/E (estimated): 21.0
Based on analyst estimates
Reference: Provider P/E (Trailing): 21.8
Net Debt/EBITDA (TTM)
1.2x
Latest quarter: 13.8x
Net Debt / EBITDAA leverage ratio showing how many years of EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) it would take to repay net debt. EBITDA approximates operating cash generation. Lower ratios (e.g., <3x) are generally safer; higher (e.g., >5x) may indicate more financial risk.
TTM through: 2026-06-30
Latest quarter (2026-06-30): 13.8x
The quarterly value can spike when quarterly EBITDA is very low (e.g., one-time charges).
Quick guide: <2x manageable, >4x can be risky (sector-dependent).
ROE
30.3%
ROE (Return on Equity)A profitability measure: how much profit is generated from shareholders’ equity. Higher isn’t always better if it comes from high debt.
EV/EBITDA
15.0x
EV/EBITDAA valuation ratio that compares total business value (including debt) to EBITDA. Lower can mean cheaper, but context matters.
Dividend Summary

2.83%
TTM: 2.95%
Dividend YieldThe Forward yield (Fwd) shows the next announced annual dividend / current price — what you'd earn going forward. The Trailing yield (TTM) in the tooltip shows dividends actually paid in the last 12 months. Forward is shown as primary because it reflects the company's current commitment to shareholders.

Trailing Yield (TTM, last 12 months): 2.95%
Payout Ratio (Fwd)

TTM: 63.8%
Payout RatioDividends as a percentage of earnings. The Forward payout (Fwd) uses the announced dividend divided by actual past earnings (TTM) — it tells you if the company can afford what it promised. Very high payouts can be risky, especially if profits fall.

Summary
Procter & Gamble remains a top-tier consumer staples juggernaut with an unmatched 70-year dividend growth streak, fortified by an elite 30.3% ROE and a pristine balance sheet. However, at a P/E of 21.8x, the stock is currently priced for perfection, offering a limited margin of safety for new capital. Existing holders should confidently maintain their positions, while new buyers should keep it on their watch list for a broader market pullback.
Sector Context
Procter & Gamble operates in the Consumer Defensive sector, specializing in household and personal products. For DGI investors, this sector provides highly predictable, recession-resistant cash flows, though often commands a valuation premium that restricts initial dividend yields.
📊 Strategy Analysis
- • Elite fundamental quality with a 30.29% ROE and highly defensive product portfolio
- • Unmatched dividend safety, underpinned by 70 consecutive years of dividend increases and a secure 50.35% FCF payout ratio
- • Pristine balance sheet with Net Debt/EBITDA at just 1.18x, providing ample flexibility
- • Strong capital return program yielding a 4.39% Total Shareholder Yield (2.95% dividend + 1.44% net buybacks)
⚠ What to Watch
- • Stretched valuation with a TTM P/E of 21.80, significantly exceeding the standard 8-15x DGI target range
- • Forward dividend yield of 2.97% falls just shy of the optimal 3.0%+ threshold for aggressive income generation
- • Structural headwinds from evolving global Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) packaging regulations and persistent consumer litigation regarding chemical traces
