Is NBT Bancorp under- or over-valued?

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

NBT Bancorp's P/E ratio

NBT Bancorp's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 16x. In other words, NBT Bancorp shares trade at around 16x 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.

NBT Bancorp's PEG ratio

NBT Bancorp's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 3.82. 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 NBT Bancorp's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Shorting NBT Bancorp shares

There are currently 704,068 NBT Bancorp shares held short by investors – that's known as NBT Bancorp's "short interest". This figure is 25.3% up from 562,054 last month.

There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting NBT Bancorp shares can be evaluated.

NBT Bancorp's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

NBT Bancorp's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of NBT Bancorp shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of NBT Bancorp shares traded daily (recently around 166053.77358491). NBT Bancorp's SIR currently stands at 4.24. In other words for every 100,000 NBT Bancorp shares traded daily on the market, roughly 4240 shares are currently held short.

However NBT Bancorp's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of NBT Bancorp shares, or, against the total number of tradable NBT Bancorp shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case NBT Bancorp's short interest could be expressed as 0.02% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 NBT Bancorp shares in existence, roughly 20 shares are currently held short) or 0.0226% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable NBT Bancorp shares, roughly 23 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 NBT Bancorp.

NBT Bancorp share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 35.23% of net profits

Recently NBT Bancorp has paid out, on average, around 35.23% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.81% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), NBT Bancorp shareholders could enjoy a 2.81% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In NBT Bancorp's case, that would currently equate to about $1.08 per share.

While NBT Bancorp's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that NBT Bancorp may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.

NBT Bancorp's most recent dividend payout was on 14 March 2021. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 25 February 2021 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have NBT Bancorp's shares ever split?

NBT Bancorp's shares were split on a 105:100 basis on 28 November 1999. So if you had owned 100 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 105 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your NBT Bancorp shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 4.8% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for NBT Bancorp shares which in turn could have impacted NBT Bancorp's share price.

NBT Bancorp share price volatility
