This is probably a basic question but can anyone explain forward P/E increasing if forward EPS is increasing as well?

—

I’m a bit confused as to why JXNs forward
P/E is higher than it currently is since earnings are expected to increase over 10% next year.

I thought that EPS increasing next year would lower the forward P/E as well? I can’t seem to find an answer to this.

Every thing online says forward p/e should decrease when forward EPS increases.

Is the forward EPS not increasing enough to lower the forward P/E? That’s the only thing I can think of to explain it. Finviz link is below.

To abide by the community rules I do own a few shares but it’s a very small percentage of my portfolio.

Thanks
