Is Plumas Bancorp under- or over-valued?

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

Plumas Bancorp's P/E ratio

Plumas Bancorp's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 11x. In other words, Plumas Bancorp shares trade at around 11x 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.

There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Plumas Bancorp shares can be evaluated.

Plumas Bancorp's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Plumas Bancorp's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Plumas Bancorp shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Plumas Bancorp shares traded daily (recently around 47942.647058824).

However Plumas Bancorp's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Plumas Bancorp shares, or, against the total number of tradable Plumas Bancorp shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Plumas Bancorp's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Plumas Bancorp shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0076% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Plumas Bancorp shares, roughly 8 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 Plumas Bancorp.
