Valuing Nu Skin Enterprises stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Nu Skin Enterprises's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Nu Skin Enterprises's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 18x. In other words, Nu Skin Enterprises shares trade at around 18x 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.
Nu Skin Enterprises's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 2.35. 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 Nu Skin Enterprises's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Nu Skin Enterprises's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is USD$297.5 million.

Nu Skin Enterprises's SIR currently stands at 2.3. In other words for every 100,000 Nu Skin Enterprises shares traded daily on the market, roughly 2300 shares are currently held short.
However Nu Skin Enterprises's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Nu Skin Enterprises shares, or, against the total number of tradable Nu Skin Enterprises shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Nu Skin Enterprises's short interest could be expressed as 0.02% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Nu Skin Enterprises shares in existence, roughly 20 shares are currently held short) or 0.0225% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Nu Skin Enterprises shares, roughly 23 shares are currently held short).

This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Nu Skin Enterprises shareholders could enjoy a 2.86% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Nu Skin Enterprises's case, that would currently equate to about $1.5 per share.
Nu Skin Enterprises's payout ratio would broadly be considered high, and as such this stock could appeal to those looking to generate an income. Bear in mind however that companies should normally also look to re-invest a decent amount of net profits to ensure future growth.
