Valuation context
How today's valuation compares to its own 5-year history.
Where today's P/E sits versus its trailing five-year median.
T's P/E sits within ±10% of its trailing 5-year median — broadly in line with its own history.
Scenario calculator
Enter EPS growth and exit P/E per scenario. The chart starts at the current share price (Now) and transitions the P/E from today's trailing multiple toward your Exit P/E over the horizon. Same live price and TTM EPS as the rest of the page.
Base case: with about a 10% decline per year and a 9× exit multiple over 5 years, the model lands T near $14.88 — an implied about a 6.7% annual decline.
Your base case implies a $22.75 12-month target. Save it to join the community consensus.
Implied price path (by year)
Paths start at $21.04 (Now); the P/E transitions from today's trailing multiple toward Exit P/E by the horizon year.

Sensitivity (base case)
Sensitivity grid — sweeps EPS growth and exit P/E around your base inputs. Simple mode only; bear, bull, and Advanced (revenue) paths are not included.
Implied share price at the horizon for each combination: EPS growth in the rows, exit P/E in the columns; other settings stay fixed.

Shade depth: darker fill within the same color band means a higher implied price in that cell (across the grid).
Annual diluted EPS
GAAP diluted EPS by fiscal year — use as context for growth assumptions above, not a forecast. Across 14 fiscal years, diluted EPS went from about $1.25 in 2012 to about $3.04 in 2025.
Diluted EPS year-over-year change
Percent change vs the previous fiscal year. If a fiscal year is missing, the comparison is to the prior available year. Year-over-year EPS change in this window ranged from a high of +173.6% to a low of -141.4%.
Your EPS growth vs next-year analyst consensus
Same basis for every column: one-step implied EPS growth (next-year average estimate vs TTM). Consensus uses 14 EPS estimates. Δ (pts) is your growth minus consensus in percentage points, not "percent of consensus."

About the T price target calculator
The T price target calculator projects a future share price by compounding trailing twelve-month earnings per share at an assumed growth rate and applying an exit P/E multiple at the end of the horizon. The stock currently trades at about $21.04, a P/E of roughly 8.2× on TTM EPS of $2.97.
14 analysts cover T for the next fiscal year, with EPS estimates ranging from $2.29 to $2.35 and a consensus average of $2.32. Versus the latest TTM EPS of about $2.97, that consensus implies roughly a 22.1% decline next year. That sits a notable shift from the trailing 5-year EPS history of 8.2% growth per year — one useful sanity check on whether consensus is anchored to history or expecting a regime change.
