Valuing Home Depot stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Home Depot's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Home Depot's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 19x. In other words, Home Depot shares trade at around 19x 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.
Home Depot's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.7224. 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 Home Depot's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Home Depot's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $27.3 billion.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Home Depot's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

When it comes to ESG scores, lower is better, and lower scores are generally associated with lower risk for would-be investors.

ESG scores are increasingly used to estimate the level of risk a company like Home Depot is exposed to within the areas of "environmental" (carbon footprint, resource use etc.), "social" (health and safety, human rights etc.), and "governance" (anti-corruption, tax transparency etc.).
Environmental score: 6.14/100

Dividend payout ratio: 45.81% of net profits
Recently Home Depot has paid out, on average, around 45.81% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.41% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Home Depot shareholders could enjoy a 2.41% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Home Depot's case, that would currently equate to about $7.6 per share.
While Home Depot's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Home Depot may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
Home Depot's most recent dividend payout was on 15 December 2022. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 30 November 2022 (the "ex-dividend date").
Home Depot's shares were split on a 3:2 basis on 31 December 1999. So if you had owned 2 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 3 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Home Depot shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 33.3% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Home Depot shares which in turn could have impacted Home Depot's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Home Depot's shares have ranged in value from as little as $261.2151 up to $365.4751. 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 Home Depot's is 0.9484. This would suggest that Home Depot's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
