Valuing Lithium Americas stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Lithium Americas's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Lithium Americas's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 11x. In other words, Lithium Americas shares trade at around 11x 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.

We're not expecting Lithium Americas to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
Lithium Americas's shares were split on a 1:5 basis on 7 November 2017. So if you had owned 5 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 Lithium Americas shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 400% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Lithium Americas shares which in turn could have impacted Lithium Americas's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Lithium Americas's shares have ranged in value from as little as $11.84 up to $41.56. 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 Lithium Americas's is 1.3352. This would suggest that Lithium Americas's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
