Is PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust under- or over-valued?

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

PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust's P/E ratio

PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 3x. In other words, PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust shares trade at around 3x 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.

PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust's PEG ratio

PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 2.12. 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 PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Shorting PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust shares

There are currently 3.1 million PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust shares held short by investors – that's known as PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust's "short interest". This figure is 7.5% up from 2.9 million last month.

There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust shares can be evaluated.

PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust shares traded daily (recently around 1.0 million). PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust's SIR currently stands at 3.06. In other words for every 100,000 PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust shares traded daily on the market, roughly 3060 shares are currently held short.

However PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust shares, or, against the total number of tradable PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust's short interest could be expressed as 0.03% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust shares in existence, roughly 30 shares are currently held short) or 0.0393% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust shares, roughly 39 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 PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust.

In PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust's case, that would currently equate to about $1.74 per share.
