Valuing Novus Therapeutics stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Novus Therapeutics's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Novus Therapeutics's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 2x. In other words, Novus Therapeutics shares trade at around 2x 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.
Novus Therapeutics's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.01. 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 Novus Therapeutics's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

There are currently 115,315 Novus Therapeutics shares held short by investors – that's known as Novus Therapeutics's "short interest". This figure is 299.1% up from 28,893 last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Novus Therapeutics shares can be evaluated.
Novus Therapeutics's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Novus Therapeutics shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Novus Therapeutics shares traded daily (recently around 34733.43373494). Novus Therapeutics's SIR currently stands at 3.32. In other words for every 100,000 Novus Therapeutics shares traded daily on the market, roughly 3320 shares are currently held short.
However Novus Therapeutics's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Novus Therapeutics shares, or, against the total number of tradable Novus Therapeutics shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Novus Therapeutics's short interest could be expressed as 0.08% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Novus Therapeutics shares in existence, roughly 80 shares are currently held short) or 0.1089% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Novus Therapeutics shares, roughly 109 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 Novus Therapeutics.

We're not expecting Novus Therapeutics to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
Novus Therapeutics's shares were split on a 1:18 basis on 5 October 2020. So if you had owned 18 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Novus Therapeutics shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 1700% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Novus Therapeutics shares which in turn could have impacted Novus Therapeutics's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Novus Therapeutics's shares have ranged in value from as little as $4.5 up to $26.44. 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 Novus Therapeutics's is 2.3075. This would suggest that Novus Therapeutics's shares are significantly more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent a higher risk.
