# Workday Inc. (WDAY) fundamentals

Data as of 2026-11-04. NASDAQ, United States. Sector: Technology / Software. Price $197.94, market value $47.7 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 40.3×** (5-yr avg 591.6×, 3-yr avg 86.0×). Workday Inc. trades at 40.3× trailing earnings, well below its own five-year average of 591.6×: cheap by its own standards. The Technology median in the September 2026 study was 32.1×. Forward P/E is 14.9×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **PEG: 0.46**. A PEG of 0.46 means the P/E is low relative to expected earnings growth: the market is not paying much for that growth.
- **Price / sales: 4.7×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 4.7×.
- **Price / book: 7.4×**. The shares trade at 7.4× book value; most of the value is in earnings power and intangibles rather than the balance sheet.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 6.0%** (5-yr avg 3.6%). Free cash flow equals 6.0% of the market value, above its five-year average of 3.6%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been. Above 5% is generally attractive.
- **Earnings yield: 2.5%**. The inverse of the P/E: 2.5% of the price is earned each year.
