Meta, median P/E at fiscal year-end, 10 fiscal years (2016 to 2025), reported earnings, FY2025 ex one-offs: 25.8.
Forward P/E: price divided by the analyst consensus for the first fiscal year that has not started yet. The current year carries special items from quarters already reported. Amazon: FY 2026 earnings estimate probably distorted by a special item known to analysts (12.92 is not between the FY 2025 actual of 7.17 and the FY 2027 estimate of 10.55).
Valuation multiples (P/E, P/S, P/B, EV/EBITDA) are shown but not scored here: the two companies sit in different sectors, and multiples only compare fairly between similar business models. PEG stays scored, as it relates the P/E to growth.

Meta leads: 3 to 7 metric wins.

n/a = not meaningfully computable, for example with negative equity.

Ahead family by family1 of 76 of 7

Minimum, maximum, median and geometric mean only use the families both stocks have (matching families: 7 of 8), so a family without a value on one side does not distort the comparison. Ahead in a family is the stock whose fair value there sits higher relative to its price. Geometric because deviations are ratios: half the price and twice the price average to 100%, not 125%.

Family by family: Meta is ahead in 6 of 7 shared families, Amazon in 1.

Amazon: 22 of 23 models see the stock below the current price.

Meta: 17 of 26 models see the stock below the current price.

Scenario ranges

From our cautious bear scenario to the optimistic bull scenario. The white tick is the current price (value above it), the green tick the fair value (value below it): if the price sits left of the fair value, there is room to rise.
