# Phillips Edison & Company Inc. (PECO) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-09-08. NASDAQ, United States. Sector: Real Estate / Equity Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs). Price $38.96, market value $5.5 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 34.2×** (5-yr avg 86.7×, 3-yr avg 59.4×). Phillips Edison & Company Inc. trades at 34.2× trailing earnings, well below its own five-year average of 86.7×: cheap by its own standards. The Real Estate median in the September 2026 study was 25.2×. Forward P/E is 57.5×, higher than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to fall.
- **PEG: 0.77**. A PEG of 0.77 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 27.6×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 27.6×, a level that requires very high margins or very fast growth to justify.
- **Price / book: 2.1×**. The shares trade at 2.1× book value; book value is a meaningful part of the valuation.
- **Earnings yield: 2.9%**. The inverse of the P/E: 2.9% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Return on equity: 4.9%**. 4.9% on shareholders' equity is weak; the business earns little on the capital its owners have in it.
- **Return on assets: 2.7%**. Each dollar of assets produces 2.7% of profit.

## Growth
- **Revenue growth (1 yr): 18.8%** (3-yr 3.4%/yr, 5-yr -52.0%/yr). Revenue grew 18.8% over the last year, against -52.0% a year compounded over five years: growth is accelerating.
- **EPS growth (1 yr): 74.5%** (3-yr 28.4%/yr, 5-yr 77.9%/yr). Earnings per share rose 74.5%, faster than revenue, so margins expanded or the share count shrank.

## Financial health
- **Debt to equity: 1.04**. Debt is 1.04 times equity, a leveraged balance sheet, which is normal for real estate.
- **Piotroski F-score: 5/9**. 5 of 9 checks pass: mixed.
