Valuing Bank of South Carolina Corporation stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Bank of South Carolina Corporation's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Bank of South Carolina 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 19x. In other words, Bank of South Carolina Corporation shares trade at around 19x recent earnings.

Recently Bank of South Carolina Corporation has paid out, on average, around 65.27% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 3.31% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Bank of South Carolina Corporation shareholders could enjoy a 3.31% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Bank of South Carolina Corporation's case, that would currently equate to about $0.66 per share.
Bank of South Carolina Corporation's payout ratio would broadly be considered high, and as such this stock could appeal to those looking to generate an income. Bear in mind however that companies should normally also look to re-invest a decent amount of net profits to ensure future growth.

Bank of South Carolina Corporation's shares were split on a 11:10 basis on 26 April 2018. So if you had owned 10 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 11 shares.

However, indirectly, the new 9.1% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Bank of South Carolina Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted Bank of South Carolina Corporation's share price.
