Valuing Solar Senior Capital stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Solar Senior Capital's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Solar Senior Capital's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 19x. In other words, Solar Senior Capital shares trade at around 19x 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.
Solar Senior Capital's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 2.55. 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 Solar Senior Capital's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

TTM: trailing 12 months
There are currently 25,693 Solar Senior Capital shares held short by investors – that's known as Solar Senior Capital's "short interest". This figure is 26.9% down from 35,167 last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Solar Senior Capital shares can be evaluated.
Solar Senior Capital's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Solar Senior Capital shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Solar Senior Capital shares traded daily (recently around 59751.162790698). Solar Senior Capital's SIR currently stands at 0.43. In other words for every 100,000 Solar Senior Capital shares traded daily on the market, roughly 430 shares are currently held short.
However Solar Senior Capital's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Solar Senior Capital shares, or, against the total number of tradable Solar Senior Capital shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Solar Senior Capital's short interest could be expressed as 0% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Solar Senior Capital shares in existence, roughly 0 shares are currently held short) or 0.0017% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Solar Senior Capital shares, roughly 2 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 Solar Senior Capital.

Dividend payout ratio: 41.24% of net profits
Recently Solar Senior Capital has paid out, on average, around 41.24% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 8.01% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Solar Senior Capital shareholders could enjoy a 8.01% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Solar Senior Capital's case, that would currently equate to about $1.323 per share.
While Solar Senior Capital's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Solar Senior Capital may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
Solar Senior Capital's most recent dividend payout was on 2 March 2021. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 17 February 2021 (the "ex-dividend date").
Over the last 12 months, Solar Senior Capital's shares have ranged in value from as little as $5.8068 up to $16.0841. 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 Solar Senior Capital's is 1.3959. This would suggest that Solar Senior Capital's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
