Is Mackinac Financial Corporation under- or over-valued?

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

Mackinac Financial Corporation's P/E ratio

Mackinac Financial Corporation'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, Mackinac Financial Corporation 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.

Mackinac Financial Corporation's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

However Mackinac Financial Corporation's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Mackinac Financial Corporation shares, or, against the total number of tradable Mackinac Financial Corporation shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Mackinac Financial Corporation's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Mackinac Financial Corporation shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0077% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Mackinac Financial Corporation shares, roughly 8 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 Mackinac Financial Corporation.

However, indirectly, the new 1900% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Mackinac Financial Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted Mackinac Financial Corporation's share price.
