Deep Analysis

The PEG ratio divides a stock's price-to-earnings ratio by its expected earnings growth rate, so 14.13x means the price paid for each unit of expected growth is extremely high.

That compares to a sector median of 0.81x, placing ILMN in the 96th percentile among peers, so the stock is far more expensive on this basis than nearly all comparable companies. The year-over-year change is N/A, while the quarter-over-quarter change is +2.2%, moving from 13.82x to the current 14.13x — the only two historical values available. With only that limited data, the metric shows a slight upward drift in an already extreme valuation. The combination of a very high level and a small recent increase points to elevated downside risk if growth expectations are not met, and limited margin of safety for new investors. This metric contradicts the overall NEUTRAL verdict because it signals that the stock's valuation is unusually stretched versus its sector, demanding better-than-peer growth to justify the price.
