According to http://www.investopedia.com/university/peratio/

The P/E is Share Price divided by EPS
And the EPS is (Net Income minus dividends) divided by Number of shares

Total revenue for NZF for the six months to 30 September 2004 was $5,667,824 so for one year I assume it is $12m. The number of shares is 69m

PE is price of share*number of shares (=market capitalisation)divided by net profit after tax.

ie 69m*.6/2.08m=19.9

just a quick estimate.












(/

The EPS is 12m/69m = 0.17
The P/E is therefore 0.57/0.17 = 3.35.

I have provided my working and assumptions so please feel free to correct any mistakes.
