Valuing Generac stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Generac's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Generac's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 37x. In other words, Generac shares trade at around 37x recent earnings.
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.
Generac's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.6308. 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 Generac's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Generac's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $804.4 million.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Generac's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

TTM: trailing 12 months
We're not expecting Generac to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
Generac's shares were split on a 1:3 basis on 9 February 2010. So if you had owned 3 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Generac shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 200% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Generac shares which in turn could have impacted Generac's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Generac's shares have ranged in value from as little as $243.2101 up to $524.31. 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 Generac's is 0.9595. This would suggest that Generac's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
