Is Simmons First National Corporation stock undervalued or overvalued?

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

Simmons First National Corporation's P/E ratio

Simmons First National 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 12x. In other words, Simmons First National Corporation shares trade at around 12x 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.

Simmons First National Corporation's PEG ratio

Simmons First National Corporation's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 3.72. 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 Simmons First National Corporation's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Dividend payout ratio: 33.04% of net profits

Recently Simmons First National Corporation has paid out, on average, around 33.04% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 3.33% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Simmons First National Corporation shareholders could enjoy a 3.33% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Simmons First National Corporation's case, that would currently equate to about $0.74 per share.

While Simmons First National Corporation's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Simmons First National Corporation may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.

However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Simmons First National Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted Simmons First National Corporation's share price.
