Is ClearOne under- or over-valued?

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

ClearOne's P/E ratio

ClearOne's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 77x. In other words, ClearOne shares trade at around 77x recent earnings.

That's relatively high compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The high P/E ratio could mean that investors are optimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're over-valued.

ClearOne's PEG ratio

ClearOne's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 4.74. 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 ClearOne's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

ClearOne's EBITDA

ClearOne's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $306,000.

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

Shorting ClearOne shares

There are currently 141,773 ClearOne shares held short by investors – that's known as ClearOne's "short interest". This figure is 28.3% up from 110,474 last month.

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

ClearOne's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

ClearOne's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of ClearOne shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of ClearOne shares traded daily (recently around 82426.162790698). ClearOne's SIR currently stands at 1.72. In other words for every 100,000 ClearOne shares traded daily on the market, roughly 1720 shares are currently held short.

However ClearOne's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of ClearOne shares, or, against the total number of tradable ClearOne shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case ClearOne's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 ClearOne shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0172% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable ClearOne shares, roughly 17 shares are currently held short).

Such a low SIR usually points to an optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against ClearOne.
