Valuing Nomura stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Nomura's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Nomura's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 20x. In other words, Nomura shares trade at around 20x 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.

TTM: trailing 12 months
There are currently 217,401 Nomura shares held short by investors – that's known as Nomura's "short interest". This figure is 16.3% down from 259,855 last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Nomura shares can be evaluated.
Nomura's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Nomura shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Nomura shares traded daily (recently around 192390.26548673). Nomura's SIR currently stands at 1.13. In other words for every 100,000 Nomura shares traded daily on the market, roughly 1130 shares are currently held short.
However Nomura's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Nomura shares, or, against the total number of tradable Nomura shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Nomura's short interest could be expressed as 0% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Nomura shares in existence, roughly 0 shares are currently held short) or 0% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Nomura shares, roughly 0 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 Nomura.

Dividend payout ratio: 6.68% of net profits
Recently Nomura has paid out, on average, around 6.68% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 3.38% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Nomura shareholders could enjoy a 3.38% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Nomura's case, that would currently equate to about $0.18 per share.
While Nomura's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Nomura is investing more in its future growth.
Nomura's most recent dividend payout was on 11 December 2017. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 30 March 2020 (the "ex-dividend date").
Nomura's shares were split on 11 October 1988.
Over the last 12 months, Nomura's shares have ranged in value from as little as $3.5129 up to $5.455. 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 Nomura's is 1.0599. This would suggest that Nomura'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).
