What the numbers say
CleaRank Financial AI's reading of CART's valuation, growth and risks.
Maplebear Inc. (CART) trades at 27.94 times earnings, while the Consumer Cyclical median is 20.8. That makes the P/E 34.3% above the sector median P/E, a premium to peers. On sales, the stock is priced at 3.04 times, which is 60.0% above the sector median P/S of 1.9. Put in scale, CART has a market capitalisation of $11.8B and trailing earnings of $1.83 a share.
With revenue growth of 14.10%, CART is 6.9 percentage points faster than the sector median of 7.2%. The business converts sales into profit at a net margin of 12.05% and an operating margin of 14.09%. It reports a return on equity of 16.00%, above the sector median of 12.4%. The balance sheet rounds out the picture, with debt-to-equity of 0.01.
CART reported EPS of $0.45 for the August 6, 2026 report, short of the $0.54 analysts had estimated, a miss of 16.67%. The share price still climbed 11.41% in the first session after the report.
Over its last 7 reports, CART topped the estimate 2 times, and every one of those beats was followed by a gain the next day. The February 12, 2026 report stands out among the earlier ones: a beat of 5.43%, after which the stock rose 9.21%. Looking ahead, analysts expect EPS of $2.31 this fiscal year (growth of 44.5%) and $2.91 the year after (growth of 25.9%).
At a P/E of 27.94, which is 34.3% above the sector median P/E, CART is at a premium to peers, so any weaker results would face a higher bar. Daily swings are the main thing to plan around, since the stock moves 2.49% on an average session. Insiders sold $273.2M of stock over the last 18 months and bought none on the open market. Insider sales are often planned in advance, so they carry less weight than purchases would.

CleaRank AI analysis of CART
The score, the reasoning behind it, and what could move the price next.
CART is in an uptrend. Its price of $49.83 sits 16.66% above the 200-day average of $42.71 and 3.93% above the 50-day average of $47.95. The stock is near the top of its 52-week range: it is 5.41% below the $52.68 high and 52.25% above the $32.73 low. The 50-day average is 12.25% above the 200-day, so the averages support the move instead of working against it.
The 14-day RSI of 62.1 is in the bullish zone, below the overbought line, and the MACD line is positive. The record is positive across every period shown: the price rose 8.75% over the past three months, rose 20.39% over the past six months and rose 27.80% over the past year.

- Two levels matter most for CART: the 52-week high of $52.68 sits above the price, and the 50-day SMA of $47.95 sits below it.
- A 14-day RSI of 62.1 falls in the bullish zone, and the MACD line is positive. Readings above 70 or below 30 would signal stretched momentum.
- CART's share price climbed 11.41% in the first session after the August 6, 2026 report, and the company has beaten estimates in 2 of the last 7 reports.
CART's uptrend depends on the price holding above its 50-day average of $47.95 and its 200-day average of $42.71. A close below the 50-day would be the first sign that the trend is weakening. If the shares pull back, the 50-day SMA at $47.95 is the first level they would reach.
The 52-week high at $52.68 is the next level overhead.
