Is Lipocine stock undervalued or overvalued?
Valuing Lipocine stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Lipocine's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Lipocine's P/E ratio
Lipocine's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 13x. In other words, Lipocine shares trade at around 13x 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.

Have Lipocine's shares ever split?
Lipocine's shares were split on a 1:100 basis on 24 July 2013. So if you had owned 100 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 Lipocine shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 9900% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Lipocine shares which in turn could have impacted Lipocine's share price.
Lipocine share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Lipocine's shares have ranged in value from as little as $0.36 up to $1.89. 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 (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while Lipocine's is 0.7848. This would suggest that Lipocine's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
