Valuing LPL Financial stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of LPL Financial's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
LPL Financial's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 32x. In other words, LPL Financial shares trade at around 32x 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.
LPL Financial's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.7859. 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 LPL Financial's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
LPL Financial's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $1 billion.
The EBITDA is a measure of a LPL Financial's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Dividend payout ratio: 15.87% of net profits
Recently LPL Financial has paid out, on average, around 15.87% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0.54% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), LPL Financial shareholders could enjoy a 0.54% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In LPL Financial's case, that would currently equate to about $1 per share.
While LPL Financial's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that LPL Financial is investing more in its future growth.
LPL Financial's most recent dividend payout was on 23 June 2022. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 7 June 2022 (the "ex-dividend date").
Over the last 12 months, LPL Financial's shares have ranged in value from as little as $126.2667 up to $220.529. 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 LPL Financial's is 0.9456. This would suggest that LPL Financial's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
