Deep Analysis

The P/E ratio of 11.3x means investors pay $11.30 for every $1.00 of YELP's annual earnings per share.

At the 9th percentile among sector peers, this is far below the sector median of 24.2x, indicating the stock trades at a lower multiple than most comparable companies. The year-over-year change is not available, but quarter-over-quarter the P/E rose from 10.2x to 11.3x, a +10.0% increase. The low level combined with a rising quarter-over-quarter trend suggests the market is paying somewhat more for the same earnings, which could reflect mild improvement in sentiment while still leaving valuation cheap relative to peers. This supports the NEUTRAL verdict: the low multiple offers potential value, but the recent upward move in P/E warrants caution about whether the discount will narrow. The metric is consistent with a balanced outlook rather than a strong buy or sell signal.
