Is ASOS under- or over-valued?

Valuing ASOS stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of ASOS's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.

ASOS's P/E ratio

ASOS's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 37x. In other words, ASOS shares trade at around 37x recent earnings.

ASOS's PEG ratio

ASOS's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.6997. 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 ASOS's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
