Valuing NeoPhotonics Corporation stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of NeoPhotonics Corporation's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
NeoPhotonics 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 49x. In other words, NeoPhotonics Corporation shares trade at around 49x 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.
NeoPhotonics Corporation's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is USD$47 million.

There are currently 2.8 million NeoPhotonics Corporation shares held short by investors – that's known as NeoPhotonics Corporation's "short interest". This figure is 14.9% down from 3.3 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting NeoPhotonics Corporation shares can be evaluated.
NeoPhotonics Corporation's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of NeoPhotonics Corporation shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of NeoPhotonics Corporation shares traded daily (recently around 539339.26499033). NeoPhotonics Corporation's SIR currently stands at 5.17. In other words for every 100,000 NeoPhotonics Corporation shares traded daily on the market, roughly 5170 shares are currently held short.
However NeoPhotonics Corporation's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of NeoPhotonics Corporation shares, or, against the total number of tradable NeoPhotonics Corporation shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case NeoPhotonics Corporation's short interest could be expressed as 0.06% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 NeoPhotonics Corporation shares in existence, roughly 60 shares are currently held short) or 0.0567% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable NeoPhotonics Corporation shares, roughly 57 shares are currently held short).
A SIR below 10% would generally be considered to indicate a fairly optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against NeoPhotonics Corporation.

Over the last 12 months, NeoPhotonics Corporation's shares have ranged in value from as little as $4.65 up to $10.34. 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 NeoPhotonics Corporation's is 1.199. This would suggest that NeoPhotonics Corporation'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).
