P/E Ratio

The P/E ratio (price-to-earnings ratio) tells investors how much they pay for each dollar of a company's earnings; at 24.7x, ORCL is priced at 24.7 times its latest annual earnings per share.

This is far below the sector median of 54.5x, placing ORCL at the 0th percentile among its TECHNOLOGY peers — meaning it has the lowest P/E in the group. The year-over-year change is not available (N/A), while quarter-over-quarter the ratio declined by 21.5%, falling from 31.4x to 24.7x. The combination of a very low P/E level and a sharp quarterly drop could suggest either a genuine value opportunity if earnings are stable, or a signal that earnings are deteriorating faster than price has adjusted — increasing risk if the trend continues. This metric supports the NEUTRAL verdict: the low absolute P/E is attractive, but the negative quarterly trend introduces uncertainty that prevents a clear bullish or bearish call.
