Französisch Begriff oder Satz: 5 fois les profits
Dear friends,

Could any of you help me understand the meaning of the expression "à 5 fois les profits" or "á 8.5x les bénéfices" in these two examples:

A 8.5x les bénéfices pour une croissance à venir de 15 à 20% sur les deux prochaines années, le titre offre une évaluation extrêmement attractive.

Il est difficile de croire que Sun Microsystems et Liquidation World se sont transigés en 1994 à 5 fois les profits!

A simple explanation will be welcome. Thank you.

Erklärung:
il existe un ratio financier qui calcule le cours de l'action divisé par le bénéfice/profit net.
C'est la ratio 'Price-to-Earnings'

Donc ici, le cours du titre mutliplié par 8.5 donne le bénéfice net par action.

price to earnings ratio
The most common measure of how expensive a stock is. The P/E ratio is equal to a stock\'s market capitalization divided by its after-tax earnings over a 12-month period, usually the trailing period but occasionally the current or forward period. The value is the same whether the calculation is done for the whole company or on a per-share basis. The higher the P/E ratio, the more the market is willing to pay for each dollar of annual earnings. The last year\'s price/earnings ratio (P/E ratio) would be actual, while current year and forward year price/earnings ratio (P/E ratio) would be estimates, but in each case, the \"P\" in the equation is the current price. Companies that are not currently profitable (that is, ones which have negative earnings) don\'t have a P/E ratio at all. also called earnings multiple or (P/E ratio).

Zustimmung Bourth: Except that here I think we've got the inverse of the PER, i.e. the current profits per share multiplied by x gives you the cost of the share. So all things being equal, you recoup your investment in x years (12 - 20% p.a.).
