On June 24, 2026, Jefferies Financial Group reports an earnings per share (EPS) of $1.02. This figure misses the analyst consensus estimate of $1.16. EPS represents the portion of a company's profit that is allocated to each outstanding share of common stock, serving as an indicator of a company's profitability.
The company also announces quarterly revenue of $2.21 billion, which falls short of the analyst consensus estimate of $2.30 billion. As highlighted by Zacks, revenue slightly missed a separate consensus estimate of $2.22 billion. This shows that the company's total sales did not meet market expectations for the quarter.
Despite missing estimates, the results show significant year-over-year improvement. The reported EPS of $1.02 is a substantial increase from $0.40 in the same quarter of 2025. As highlighted by Business Wire, total net revenues also grew to approximately $2.2 billion from $1.6 billion in the prior year's quarter.
Current valuation metrics offer further insight. Jefferies Financial Group has a Price-to-Earnings (P/E) ratio of 30.01, which suggests investors are paying about $30 for every dollar of the company's earnings. Its Price-to-Sales ratio is approximately 1.00, meaning its stock price is valued at one times its revenue per share.
