There are currently 67,648 Magal Security Systems shares held short by investors – that's known as Magal Security Systems's "short interest". This figure is 1.4% up from 66,738 last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Magal Security Systems shares can be evaluated.
Magal Security Systems's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Magal Security Systems shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Magal Security Systems shares traded daily (recently around 614981.81818182). Magal Security Systems's SIR currently stands at 0.11. In other words for every 100,000 Magal Security Systems shares traded daily on the market, roughly 110 shares are currently held short.
However Magal Security Systems's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Magal Security Systems shares, or, against the total number of tradable Magal Security Systems shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Magal Security Systems's short interest could be expressed as 0% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Magal Security Systems shares in existence, roughly 0 shares are currently held short) or 0.0051% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Magal Security Systems shares, roughly 5 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 Magal Security Systems.

Dividend payout ratio: 6.05% of net profits
Recently Magal Security Systems has paid out, on average, around 6.05% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 27.74% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Magal Security Systems shareholders could enjoy a 27.74% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Magal Security Systems's case, that would currently equate to about $1.08 per share.
While Magal Security Systems's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Magal Security Systems is investing more in its future growth.
Magal Security Systems's most recent dividend payout was on 22 September 2021. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 23 September 2021 (the "ex-dividend date").
Magal Security Systems's shares were split on 1 August 2004.
Over the last 12 months, Magal Security Systems's shares have ranged in value from as little as $1.955 up to $4.24. 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 Magal Security Systems's is 1.0022. This would suggest that Magal Security Systems's shares are a little bit more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a slightly higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
