Deep Analysis
The PEG ratio is 29.27x, meaning investors are paying about 29 times the company’s annual earnings growth rate — a very high price relative to its expected profit expansion.
This figure is far above the TECHNOLOGY sector median of 1.91x, placing NOW in the 100th percentile among peers, indicating it is the most expensive stock in the sector on this metric. The year-over-year change is not available, but the quarter-over-quarter change shows an 11.4% increase, pushing the ratio higher from 26.28x in the prior period. The combination of an extreme level and a rising trend suggests outsized valuation risk, as the stock has become even more richly priced relative to growth expectations. This metric directly supports the overall CAUTIOUS verdict — the elevated PEG ratio signals limited margin of safety and a high bar for future performance.
