Is Extreme Networks under- or over-valued?

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.

Shorting Extreme Networks shares

There are currently 6.7 million Extreme Networks shares held short by investors – that's known as Extreme Networks's "short interest". This figure is 3.7% up from 6.4 million last month.

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

Extreme Networks's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Extreme Networks's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Extreme Networks shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Extreme Networks shares traded daily (recently around 881021.85430464). Extreme Networks's SIR currently stands at 7.55. In other words for every 100,000 Extreme Networks shares traded daily on the market, roughly 7550 shares are currently held short.

However Extreme Networks's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Extreme Networks shares, or, against the total number of tradable Extreme Networks shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Extreme Networks's short interest could be expressed as 0.05% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Extreme Networks shares in existence, roughly 50 shares are currently held short) or 0.0525% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Extreme Networks shares, roughly 53 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 Extreme Networks.
