Is Crawford-and-Company stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Crawford-and-Company's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 15x. In other words, Crawford-and-Company shares trade at around 15x 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.

Crawford-and-Company share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 32.88% of net profits

Recently Crawford-and-Company has paid out, on average, around 32.88% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 3.06% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Crawford-and-Company shareholders could enjoy a 3.06% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Crawford-and-Company's case, that would currently equate to about $0.24 per share.

While Crawford-and-Company's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Crawford-and-Company may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.

Crawford-and-Company's most recent dividend payout was on 9 June 2022. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 25 May 2022 (the "ex-dividend date").

Crawford-and-Company's shares were split on a 3:2 basis on 25 March 1997. So if you had owned 2 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 3 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Crawford-and-Company shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 33.3% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Crawford-and-Company shares which in turn could have impacted Crawford-and-Company's share price.
