Is Rent-A-Center stock undervalued or overvalued?
Valuing Rent-A-Center stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Rent-A-Center's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Rent-A-Center's P/E ratio
Rent-A-Center's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 15x. In other words, Rent-A-Center shares trade at around 15x 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.
Rent-A-Center's PEG ratio
Rent-A-Center's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 30.09. 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 Rent-A-Center's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Rent-A-Center's EBITDA
Rent-A-Center's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is $429.1 million.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Rent-A-Center's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

Rent-A-Center share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 26.76% of net profits
Recently Rent-A-Center has paid out, on average, around 26.76% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 6.99% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Rent-A-Center shareholders could enjoy a 6.99% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Rent-A-Center's case, that would currently equate to about $1.27 per share.
While Rent-A-Center's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Rent-A-Center may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
Rent-A-Center's most recent dividend payout was on 11 July 2022. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 16 June 2022 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have Rent-A-Center's shares ever split?
Rent-A-Center's shares were split on a 5:2 basis on 1 September 2003. So if you had owned 2 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 5 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Rent-A-Center shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 60% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Rent-A-Center shares which in turn could have impacted Rent-A-Center's share price.
Rent-A-Center share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Rent-A-Center's shares have ranged in value from as little as $19.01 up to $64.9299. 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 Rent-A-Center's is 1.5454. This would suggest that Rent-A-Center's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
