Alliance Data Systems Corporation's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 4x. In other words, Alliance Data Systems Corporation shares trade at around 4x recent earnings.
That's relatively low compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The low P/E ratio could mean that investors are pessimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're under-valued.
Alliance Data Systems Corporation's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.8052. A low ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer better value, while a higher ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer worse value.
The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Alliance Data Systems Corporation's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

So if you had owned 1000 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1253 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Alliance Data Systems Corporation shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 20.2% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Alliance Data Systems Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted Alliance Data Systems Corporation's share price.
