Valuing Spirit AeroSystems stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Spirit AeroSystems's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Spirit AeroSystems's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 10x. In other words, Spirit AeroSystems shares trade at around 10x 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.
Spirit AeroSystems's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.3. 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 Spirit AeroSystems's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Spirit AeroSystems's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is USD$209.9 million.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Spirit AeroSystems's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

There are currently 5.6 million Spirit AeroSystems shares held short by investors – that's known as Spirit AeroSystems's "short interest". This figure is 33.1% down from 8.4 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Spirit AeroSystems shares can be evaluated.
Spirit AeroSystems's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Spirit AeroSystems shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Spirit AeroSystems shares traded daily (recently around 4.0 million). Spirit AeroSystems's SIR currently stands at 1.4. In other words for every 100,000 Spirit AeroSystems shares traded daily on the market, roughly 1400 shares are currently held short.
However Spirit AeroSystems's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Spirit AeroSystems shares, or, against the total number of tradable Spirit AeroSystems shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Spirit AeroSystems's short interest could be expressed as 0.05% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Spirit AeroSystems shares in existence, roughly 50 shares are currently held short) or 0.0605% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Spirit AeroSystems shares, roughly 61 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 Spirit AeroSystems.

We're not expecting Spirit AeroSystems to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
Spirit AeroSystems's shares were split on a 1:100 basis on 20 December 2013. So if you had owned 100 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Spirit AeroSystems shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 9900% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Spirit AeroSystems shares which in turn could have impacted Spirit AeroSystems's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Spirit AeroSystems's shares have ranged in value from as little as $13.6668 up to $70.3904. 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 (NYSE average) beta is 1, while Spirit AeroSystems's is 2.0341. This would suggest that Spirit AeroSystems's shares are significantly more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent a higher risk.
