Is Portillo’s under- or over-valued?

Valuing a stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge value. Check out the Portillo’s P/E ratio, PEG ratio and EBITDA.

Portillo’s's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 15x. In other words, Portillo’s's shares trade at around 15x recent earnings.

That's relatively low compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the United States stock markets on average as of March 2025 (25.37). The low P/E ratio could mean that investors are pessimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're under-valued.

However, Portillo’s's P/E ratio is best considered in relation to those of others within the industry or those of similar companies.

Portillo’s's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $80.1 million (£60.6 million).
