ORCL Historical PE Ratio Notes

— Oracle Corporation (ORCL) is a global leader in database technology, cloud computing, and enterprise software solutions. Its core business revolves around providing software & cloud infrastructure for businesses, government, and large organizations to manage data, applications, and business operations efficiently. Oracle's revenues historically stemmed from on-premise database software, but in recent years, it has shifted focus to cloud-based offerings such as Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) & Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) products. This transition affects its earnings growth expectations and, consequently, its historical price-to-earnings (PE) ratio. Investors reviewing Oracle's historical PE trends will notice periods of higher valuations during times of rapid innovation or strong cloud momentum, and lower ratios during transitional phases or when legacy software sales slowed. The stock market generally assigns higher PE ratios to technology firms showing strong growth prospects, but compresses those valuations if earnings are pressured by competition, technology shifts, or large R&D investments. In summary, as you examine Oracle's historical PE ratios alongside its share price and earnings figures, consider how the company's evolving business model and market perception of future growth have driven investor sentiment & valuation multiples over time.

On this page we presented the Oracle Historical PE Ratio information for Oracle' stock. The average ORCL historical PE based on using the annualized quarterly earnings result at each measurement period (for the "E" in the PE calculation; and the closing price on earnings date as the "P") is 16.9. Meanwhile, using the trailing twelve month (TTM) quarterly earnings result as our method of calculation the "E" value at each measurement period, the average ORCL historical PE based on this TTM earnings result method is 17.4.

Let's now compare this ORCL historical PE result, against the recent PE: when this page was posted on 3/10/2026, the most recent closing price for ORCL had been 149.40, and the most recent quarterly earnings result, annualized, was 7.16. Meanwhile, the most recent TTM earnings summed to 7.22. From these numbers, we calculate the recent ORCL PE on 3/10/2026 based on annualized quarterly EPS was 20.9. Based on ORCL's history, that recent PE is elevated relative to the historical average, with the recent PE 23.7% higher than the historical average PE across our data set for Oracle. Looking at the recent ORCL PE on 3/10/2026 based on TTM EPS, we calculate the ratio at 20.7. Based on ORCL's history, that recent PE is elevated relative to the historical average, with the recent PE 19.0% higher than the historical average PE across our Oracle data set with TTM EPS used in the calculation at each period.

Another interesting ORCL historical PE Ratio calculation we look at is to take the median earnings per share of the last four quarters for ORCL, and then annualize the resulting value... with that annualized number then being used in the PE calculation. To walk through this math for ORCL, we start with the past four EPS numbers and we first sort them from lowest to highest: 1.47, 1.70, 1.79, and 2.26. We then toss out the highest and lowest result, and then take the average of those two middle numbers — 1.70 and 1.79 — which gives us the median of 1.75. Basically the way to think about this 1.75 number is this: for the trailing four earnings reports, 1.75 marks the "middle ground" number where ORCL has reported a value higher than 1.75 half the time, and has reported a value lower than 1.75 half the time. Annualizing that median value then gets us to 7/share, which we use as the denominator in our next PE calculation. With 149.40 as the numerator (as of 3/10/2026), the calculation is then 149.40 / 7 = 21.3 as the ORCL PE ratio as of 3/10/2026, based on that annualized median value we calculated.

For self directed investors doing their due diligence on ORCL or any other given stock, valuation analysis for ORCL can greatly benefit from studying the past earnings and resulting PE calculations. This exercise can help inform an analysis as to whether the past earnings trajectory and current versus historical PE ratios justify the current stock value.
