Teleperformance has seen its share price fall back in recent weeks, even though longer term holders are still sitting on sizeable gains. That gap between a choppy share price and a business built around steady contracted work raises a straightforward question for investors who watch earnings closely.

There is a second opinion on Teleperformance worth weighing. See what analysts think Teleperformance’s shares could be worth.
The issue now is whether Teleperformance’s current share price around its recent €68.44 close is adequately supported by the earnings that underpin it.
You can also put Teleperformance’s recent swings in context by comparing its earnings-driven story with other businesses screened for 223 high quality undervalued stocks.
Is Teleperformance Still Cheap on Earnings?
The P/E ratio works well for Teleperformance because earnings and cash flow sit at the center of how investors frame the story. On this measure, the stock trades on about 8.6x earnings, which is far below the Professional Services industry average of roughly 15.4x and well under the peer group near 21.8x.
That discount looks even starker once you factor in the tailored fair multiple from the model, which points to a higher P/E than the price currently implies given Teleperformance’s margins, risk profile and sector. Because the group recently confirmed its 2026 margin and free cash flow targets despite revenue headwinds in Trust & Safety, the current valuation leaves the shares screening as undervalued on this earnings yardstick compared with what the framework suggests could be justified.
