Sprout Social PEG Ratio

Sprout Social posts a PEG ratio of 27.86. That is above the Technology sector average of 12.49. Comparing that reading with peers and prior periods is usually more useful than looking at the number in isolation.

For Technology stocks, a PEG ratio near 12.49 is typical. Sprout Social's 27.86 is higher that level. That is roughly 123.1% above the sector mean. Whether that is a warning or an opportunity depends on growth outlook and other fundamentals shown elsewhere on Stockcircle.

Sprout Social's PEG ratio of 27.86 comes from dividing a price-based measure by a related financial statistic. Changes can come from the stock price moving, the underlying fundamental shifting, or both. Track both the level and the trend — a rising multiple on falling fundamentals is a different story than a rising multiple on rising earnings.

Context for SPT's PEG ratio usually means three checks: (1) trend versus prior periods, (2) level versus peers (average 12.49), and (3) consistency with growth and profitability. This page covers the first two; Sprout Social's other metric pages and overview cover the third.
