Why it matters for the long term
Over 10-20 years, what drives a share up is the growth of its profits (EPS) + reinvested dividends. The P/E tells you whether you are paying a lot or a little for that growth. In short: rising EPS + reasonable P/E + growing dividend = good long-term candidate.

About The Hershey Company
The Hershey Company makes chocolate and candy (Hershey's, Reese's, Kit Kat under license) along with salty snacks like SkinnyPop and Pirate's Booty. It sells these products through grocery stores, convenience stores, mass retailers, and online, earning money on every bag or bar sold. A charitable trust that funds the Milton Hershey School controls most of the voting power in the company, which keeps it protected from takeover attempts.
