Preferred P/E of 32x for Rorze: Is it justified?

On a simple earnings yardstick, Rorze trades on a P/E of 32x, which puts a premium on the ¥4,054 last close compared with peers and the broader semiconductor industry.

The P/E ratio compares the current share price with earnings per share and is often used for companies like Rorze that generate profits and operate in growth driven sectors such as semiconductors and automation equipment.

For Rorze, the current P/E of 32x is above both the peer average of 23x and the JP Semiconductor industry average of 20.4x.
