Valuation ratio Description The company
P/E ratio The P/E ratio tells analyst how much an investor in common stock pays per dollar of current earnings. Schlumberger Ltd. P/E ratio decreased from Q2 2023 to Q3 2023 and from Q3 2023 to Q4 2023.
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. Schlumberger Ltd. P/OP ratio decreased from Q2 2023 to Q3 2023 and from Q3 2023 to Q4 2023.
P/S ratio An rationale for the P/S ratio is that sales, as the top line in an income statement, are generally less subject to distortion or manipulation than other fundamentals such as EPS or book value. Sales are also more stable than earnings and never negative. Schlumberger Ltd. P/S ratio decreased from Q2 2023 to Q3 2023 and from Q3 2023 to Q4 2023.
