Valuing Elbit Systems stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Elbit Systems's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Elbit Systems's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 22x. In other words, Elbit Systems shares trade at around 22x 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.
Elbit Systems's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 2.21. 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 Elbit Systems's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Elbit Systems's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $518.8 million.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Elbit Systems's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Dividend payout ratio: 23.84% of net profits
Recently Elbit Systems has paid out, on average, around 23.84% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 1.1% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Elbit Systems shareholders could enjoy a 1.1% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Elbit Systems's case, that would currently equate to about $1.8 per share.
While Elbit Systems's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Elbit Systems is investing more in its future growth.
Elbit Systems's most recent dividend payout was on 2 January 2022. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 16 December 2021 (the "ex-dividend date").
Over the last 12 months, Elbit Systems's shares have ranged in value from as little as $122.1328 up to $182.85. 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 (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while Elbit Systems's is 0.3969. This would suggest that Elbit Systems's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
