I'd be happy to help, but I need to know which company you're asking about. Could you tell me the company name or ticker symbol?

Loading chart...The chart shows KO's TTM P/E and TTM P/FCF since late 2022.

Both multiples compressed through 2023 into the low 20s, then expanded in 2024, peaking around Q3 2024 near 28.5x P/E and 31.7x P/FCF. They pulled back into late 2024 before climbing again through the most recent quarter to 27.8x P/E and 30.0x P/FCF — right near the upper end of the two-year range. P/FCF has consistently run 1–3 turns above P/E over this period.
