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.

TTM: trailing 12 months
There are currently 1.7 million Dillards shares held short by investors – that's known as Dillards's "short interest". This figure is 58.8% down from 4.0 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Dillards shares can be evaluated.
Dillards's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Dillards shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Dillards shares traded daily (recently around 867179.05759162). Dillards's SIR currently stands at 1.91. In other words for every 100,000 Dillards shares traded daily on the market, roughly 1910 shares are currently held short.
However Dillards's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Dillards shares, or, against the total number of tradable Dillards shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Dillards's short interest could be expressed as 0.07% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Dillards shares in existence, roughly 70 shares are currently held short) or 0.3909% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Dillards shares, roughly 391 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 Dillards.

Dividend payout ratio: 150% of net profits
Recently Dillards has paid out, on average, around 150% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0.75% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Dillards shareholders could enjoy a 0.75% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Dillards's case, that would currently equate to about $0.6 per share.
Dillards'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.
Dillards's most recent dividend payout was on 3 May 2021. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 30 March 2021 (the "ex-dividend date").
Dillards's shares were split on a 3:1 basis on 8 June 1992. So if you had owned 1 share 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 Dillards shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 66.7% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Dillards shares which in turn could have impacted Dillards's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Dillards's shares have ranged in value from as little as $21.885 up to $128. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while Dillards's is 0.817. This would suggest that Dillards's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
