Fundamentals · FY2026 Valuation
Standard valuation multiples from SEC-reported GAAP financials (trailing twelve months), each compared to the median for Food & Agriculture. We use reported GAAP, not forward or adjusted earnings, so our figures can sit higher than sites that do — especially for companies with falling profit. Relative context — not a target price or investment advice.
P/E
18.73
≈ in line with
Food & Agriculture (median 20.2)
how it's calculated
P/E = price ÷ earnings per share
$165.61 ÷ $8.84 = 18.73
Based on GAAP trailing-twelve-month financials (SEC filings) and the latest close. Other sites may show a different multiple when they use forward (projected) or non-GAAP adjusted figures instead of reported GAAP — for a company with volatile profit those can differ in either direction from the GAAP figure shown here.
P/B
7.24
▲ pricier than
Food & Agriculture (median 1.8)
how it's calculated
P/B = price ÷ book value per share
$165.61 ÷ $22.86 = 7.24
Based on GAAP trailing-twelve-month financials (SEC filings) and the latest close. Other sites may show a different multiple when they use forward (projected) or non-GAAP adjusted figures instead of reported GAAP — for a company with volatile profit those can differ in either direction from the GAAP figure shown here.
EV/EBITDA
12.55
▼ cheaper than
Food & Agriculture (median 15.8)
how it's calculated
EV/EBITDA = (market cap + net debt) ÷ EBITDA
($33.6B + $4.7B net debt) ÷ $3.0B = $38.3B ÷ $3.0B = 12.55
Based on GAAP trailing-twelve-month financials (SEC filings) and the latest close. Other sites may show a different multiple when they use forward (projected) or non-GAAP adjusted figures instead of reported GAAP — for a company with volatile profit those can differ in either direction from the GAAP figure shown here.

Two things to watch per trade: the disclosure lag (how many days passed before the trade was made public) and the price move in that window (how the stock moved during those non-public days). A sell followed by a price drop, or a buy followed by a rise, means well-timed trading — visible here in the open. Note: the Score measures how notable a trade is, not whether it made money — the price move is shown for context and isn't part of it.

What the company's own officers and directors did in HSY — open-market purchases and sales from SEC Form 4 filings (option exercises, grants and tax withholding are excluded).
