Is Cinemark under- or over-valued?

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

Cinemark's P/E ratio

Cinemark's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 8x. In other words, Cinemark shares trade at around 8x 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.

Cinemark's PEG ratio

Cinemark's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.6567. 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 Cinemark's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Cinemark's EBITDA

Cinemark's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $212.5 million.

The EBITDA is a measure of a Cinemark's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Shorting Cinemark shares

There are currently 21.5 million Cinemark shares held short by investors – that's known as Cinemark's "short interest". This figure is 3.1% down from 22.2 million last month.

There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Cinemark shares can be evaluated.

Cinemark's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Cinemark's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Cinemark shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Cinemark shares traded daily (recently around 4.0 million). Cinemark's SIR currently stands at 5.32. In other words for every 100,000 Cinemark shares traded daily on the market, roughly 5320 shares are currently held short.

However Cinemark's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Cinemark shares, or, against the total number of tradable Cinemark shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Cinemark's short interest could be expressed as 0.18% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Cinemark shares in existence, roughly 180 shares are currently held short) or 0.3158% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Cinemark shares, roughly 316 shares are currently held short).

A SIR below 10% would generally be considered to indicate a fairly optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against Cinemark.
