Is Louis Vuitton under- or over-valued?

The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Louis Vuitton's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Louis Vuitton's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is a whopping €23.9 billion (£20.5 billion).
