Is Ford Motor Company under- or over-valued?

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

Ford Motor Company's P/E ratio

Ford Motor 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 12x. In other words, Ford Motor Company shares trade at around 12x 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.

Ford Motor Company's PEG ratio

Ford Motor Company's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.234. 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 Ford Motor Company's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Ford Motor Company's EBITDA

Ford Motor Company's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $8.5 billion.

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

Shorting Ford Motor Company shares

There are currently 89.3 million Ford Motor Company shares held short by investors – that's known as Ford Motor Company's "short interest". This figure is 7.7% up from 83.0 million last month.

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

Ford Motor Company's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Ford Motor Company's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Ford Motor Company shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Ford Motor Company shares traded daily (recently around 63.4 million). Ford Motor Company's SIR currently stands at 1.41. In other words for every 100,000 Ford Motor Company shares traded daily on the market, roughly 1410 shares are currently held short.

However Ford Motor Company's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Ford Motor Company shares, or, against the total number of tradable Ford Motor Company shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Ford Motor Company's short interest could be expressed as 0.02% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Ford Motor Company shares in existence, roughly 20 shares are currently held short) or 0.0243% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Ford Motor Company shares, roughly 24 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 Ford Motor Company.
