## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 17.8×** (5-yr avg 8.6×, 3-yr avg 9.2×). Royal Bank Of Canada trades at 17.8× trailing earnings, well above its own five-year average of 8.6×: investors are paying up relative to the company's past. The Financial Services median in the September 2026 study was 13.1×. Forward P/E is 16.0×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **PEG: 0.63**. A PEG of 0.63 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.

- **Free-cash-flow yield: 19.6%** (5-yr avg 24.9%). Free cash flow equals 19.6% of the market value, below its five-year average of 24.9%, so the shares are pricier on cash than usual. Above 5% is generally attractive.
