Valuation ratio Description The company
P/OP ratio Because P/E ratio is calculated using net income, the ratio can be sensitive to nonrecurring earnings and capital structure, analysts may use price to operating profit. General Electric Co. P/OP ratio decreased from Q1 2022 to Q2 2022 but then increased from Q2 2022 to Q3 2022 not reaching Q1 2022 level.
