Relative estimate
Explanation:
(P/E ratio or Multiplier) is a relative estimate

I am guessing your text is taken from this site or related to it:

www.etf.co.il/index.php/2008/02/20/multiples-and-indices/

It says "מכפיל הוא הערכה לייחוס"

If You look at the context you'll find that the emphasis is on the relativity of the ratio/multiplier (מכפיל):

חשוב! מכפיל הוא הערכה לייחוס. כשאומרים שלחברה או למדד יש מכפיל גבוה חייבים להוסיף ביחס למה בדיוק. בנוסף, מכפילים מועילים בעיקר למשקיעים לטווח ארוך (10 שנים ומעלה).

So - in context I think that captures it.

as:
"a relative estimate for reference"
or
"a reference relative estimate"

neutral  Ron Armon: מכפיל, or as a full term in context מכפיל רווח CAN be translated as a Multiplier Shai, but the exact translation in stock market glossaries is P/E ratio. Reference is right, but I think the estimate notion is missing in your entry

  -> and I have to agree. I know about the P/E ratio, but I knoe it in a slight different context. Ovarall I think that you proposed a better answer.
