Is Janus Henderson Group under- or over-valued?
Valuing Janus Henderson Group stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Janus Henderson Group's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Janus Henderson Group's P/E ratio
Janus Henderson Group's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 34x. In other words, Janus Henderson Group shares trade at around 34x 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.
Janus Henderson Group's PEG ratio
Janus Henderson Group's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 9.5783. 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 Janus Henderson Group's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Janus Henderson Group's EBITDA
Janus Henderson Group's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is USD$720.7 million.

Shorting Janus Henderson Group shares
There are currently 1.2 million Janus Henderson Group shares held short by investors – that's known as Janus Henderson Group's "short interest". This figure is 36.6% down from 2.0 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Janus Henderson Group shares can be evaluated.
Janus Henderson Group's "short interest ratio" (SIR)
Janus Henderson Group's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Janus Henderson Group shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Janus Henderson Group shares traded daily (recently around 1.8 million). Janus Henderson Group's SIR currently stands at 0.68. In other words for every 100,000 Janus Henderson Group shares traded daily on the market, roughly 680 shares are currently held short.
However Janus Henderson Group's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Janus Henderson Group shares, or, against the total number of tradable Janus Henderson Group shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Janus Henderson Group's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Janus Henderson Group shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0089% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Janus Henderson Group shares, roughly 9 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 Janus Henderson Group.

Janus Henderson Group share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 47.84% of net profits
Recently Janus Henderson Group has paid out, on average, around 47.84% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 4.77% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Janus Henderson Group shareholders could enjoy a 4.77% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Janus Henderson Group's case, that would currently equate to about $1.44 per share.
While Janus Henderson Group's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Janus Henderson Group may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
Janus Henderson Group's most recent dividend payout was on 3 March 2021. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 16 February 2021 (the "ex-dividend date").
Janus Henderson Group share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Janus Henderson Group's shares have ranged in value from as little as $10.8714 up to $34.8064. 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 Janus Henderson Group's is 1.421. This would suggest that Janus Henderson Group's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
