Low PE High EPS Growth US Stocks — Deep Value with Earnings Acceleration on NYSE & NASDAQ

About This Screen

A P/E ratio below 10 places a stock in the bottom decile of market valuations — a territory historically associated either with businesses in secular decline, commodities at cycle lows, or, most interestingly, genuinely overlooked companies that the market has mispriced. When this extreme low valuation is combined with earnings growth above 10%, the combination becomes genuinely compelling: the company is not cheap because its earnings are falling — it is cheap despite its earnings growing. This dissonance between valuation and growth trajectory is precisely the condition that value investors spend careers searching for, and this screen is designed to surface it systematically across the entire US equity market.

The screen applies two hard filters simultaneously. The trailing twelve-month P/E ratio must be between 1 and 10 — the lower bound of 1 eliminates statistical anomalies while the upper bound of 10 ensures genuine deep value territory. Earnings growth (year-over-year EPS growth from our snapshot data) must exceed 10%, confirming that the low P/E reflects undervaluation rather than earnings deterioration. Companies where the P/E is low because earnings have collapsed or the business is in structural decline are specifically excluded by the growth filter. What remains is a highly concentrated universe of genuinely undervalued growing businesses.

Stocks with P/E below 10 and growing earnings often fall into this category for identifiable reasons: they operate in unloved sectors (energy, basic materials, traditional financials), they have recently been through a controversy that suppressed sentiment, or they are simply too small to attract meaningful institutional analyst coverage. Each of these situations creates a potential opportunity. The sector distribution visible in this screen's results is itself informative — persistent clustering in certain industries signals whether the low valuations are structural (commodity cyclicality) or potentially temporary mispricings.

Before investing in any name from this screen, scrutinise whether the earnings growth is sustainable. A single-year EPS spike driven by a one-time tax benefit, asset sale, or insurance recovery can make a P/E look very low on a trailing basis while the forward earnings trajectory is flat or declining. Look for multi-year earnings consistency alongside the trailing growth figure. Companies where both revenue and EPS have grown consistently for three or more years at these valuations are extremely rare and warrant serious investigation.
