Is LG Display CoLtd under- or over-valued?

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

LG Display CoLtd's P/E ratio

LG Display CoLtd's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 5x. In other words, LG Display CoLtd shares trade at around 5x 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.

LG Display CoLtd's PEG ratio

LG Display CoLtd's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.5. 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 LG Display CoLtd's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

LG Display CoLtd's EBITDA

LG Display CoLtd's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $6,033.7 billion.

The EBITDA is a measure of a LG Display CoLtd's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Shorting LG Display CoLtd shares

There are currently 4.1 million LG Display CoLtd shares held short by investors – that's known as LG Display CoLtd's "short interest". This figure is 30.7% down from 6.0 million last month.

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

LG Display CoLtd's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

LG Display CoLtd's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of LG Display CoLtd shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of LG Display CoLtd shares traded daily (recently around 1.0 million). LG Display CoLtd's SIR currently stands at 3.94. In other words for every 100,000 LG Display CoLtd shares traded daily on the market, roughly 3940 shares are currently held short.

However LG Display CoLtd's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of LG Display CoLtd shares, or, against the total number of tradable LG Display CoLtd shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case LG Display CoLtd's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 LG Display CoLtd shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0093% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable LG Display CoLtd 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 LG Display CoLtd.
