Is Old Point Financial Corporation under- or over-valued?

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

Old Point Financial Corporation's P/E ratio

Old Point Financial 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 21x. In other words, Old Point Financial Corporation shares trade at around 21x recent earnings.

There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Old Point Financial Corporation shares can be evaluated.

Old Point Financial Corporation's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

However Old Point Financial Corporation's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Old Point Financial Corporation shares, or, against the total number of tradable Old Point Financial Corporation shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Old Point Financial Corporation's short interest could be expressed as 0% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Old Point Financial Corporation shares in existence, roughly 0 shares are currently held short) or 0.0006% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Old Point Financial Corporation shares, roughly 1 shares are currently held short).

Have Old Point Financial Corporation's shares ever split?

This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Old Point Financial Corporation shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 20% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Old Point Financial Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted Old Point Financial Corporation's share price.
