Is Inovalon under- or over-valued?

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

Inovalon's P/E ratio

Inovalon's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 143x. In other words, Inovalon shares trade at around 143x 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.

Inovalon's PEG ratio

Inovalon's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 5.24. 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 Inovalon's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Shorting Inovalon shares

There are currently 4.0 million Inovalon shares held short by investors – that's known as Inovalon's "short interest". This figure is 0.8% down from 4.0 million last month.

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

Inovalon's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Inovalon's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Inovalon shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Inovalon shares traded daily (recently around 352008.77963126). Inovalon's SIR currently stands at 11.39. In other words for every 100,000 Inovalon shares traded daily on the market, roughly 11390 shares are currently held short.

However Inovalon's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Inovalon shares, or, against the total number of tradable Inovalon shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Inovalon's short interest could be expressed as 0.03% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Inovalon shares in existence, roughly 30 shares are currently held short) or 0.0535% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Inovalon shares, roughly 54 shares are currently held short).

A SIR above 10% would generally be considered pretty high, pointing to a potentially pessimistic outlook for the share price and a discouraging interest in betting against Inovalon.
