## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 19.5×** (5-yr avg 16.4×, 3-yr avg 16.9×). SEI Investments Company trades at 19.5× trailing earnings, close to its own five-year average of 16.4×. 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.

- **Price / sales: 5.4×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 5.4×.
- **Price / book: 5.3×**. The shares trade at 5.3× book value; most of the value is in earnings power and intangibles rather than the balance sheet.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 5.2%** (5-yr avg 6.1%). Free cash flow equals 5.2% of the market value, in line with its five-year average of 6.1%. Above 5% is generally attractive.
