# PTC Inc. (PTC) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-11-04. NASDAQ, United States. Sector: Technology / Software. Price $194.06, market value $21.1 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 18.8×** (5-yr avg 45.9×, 3-yr avg 53.4×). PTC Inc. trades at 18.8× trailing earnings, well below its own five-year average of 45.9×: cheap by its own standards. The Technology median in the September 2026 study was 32.1×. Forward P/E is 21.8×, higher than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to fall.
- **PEG: 0.23**. A PEG of 0.23 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 7.1×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 7.1×.
- **Price / book: 6.2×**. The shares trade at 6.2× book value; most of the value is in earnings power and intangibles rather than the balance sheet.
- **EV / EBITDA: 18.2×**. Enterprise value is 18.2× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 4.4%** (5-yr avg 3.2%). Free cash flow equals 4.4% of the market value, above its five-year average of 3.2%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been.
- **Earnings yield: 5.3%**. The inverse of the P/E: 5.3% of the price is earned each year.

- **EPS growth (1 yr): 94.9%** (3-yr 31.9%/yr, 5-yr 40.3%/yr). Earnings per share rose 94.9%, faster than revenue, so margins expanded or the share count shrank.
